Borbet A's - Will These Sizes Work!?

[Fenix]

Front are 9j*16 and rear are 10j*17. How will this look? I'll be on coilovers aswell - figured if I get 17's I can look low but still be practical. As long as it's not noticeable - none of this tractor style

i have the As on my mk2 only 7.5s though only problem i have is the back arch rubs hits the tire over the bigger bumps. they do look good though

you got a VR6 conversion or summit? 17s are a bad move in my opinion.

Serious Arch work required no question but I'm sure you'll get them on somehow, BUT you cannot expect practiacallity with wheels that big on a small hatch!

I am agreed, who want's my 17 OZ's (fitted by the previous owner)

 

[Fenix]

So 17's are poo - stick to the 16's ?

If they had been 16's then i would have really thought about it.

That's what I'm doing, rides just to harsh for the way I drive on my favoite back roads they really unsettle the car!

 

[Roelích]

Do they do 17 inch Borbet A's??!

Get 16's mate.

I'm getting new wheels soon- 7.5" front (with 5mm spacers to clear brakes) and 9" rear

They're probably the best. Euro tastic!

 

[Roelích]

PS- Someone buy my 17" TD's!

If I had the money I would do it in a second just look at this car

 

[Mckellar]

tht picture is the sole reason i sold my polished porsche rims

they just didnt look good, worse than i thought

now i am awaiting some custom painted ones

 

[gregclarks]

I had the 16x9s on the back, they were just so slow i had to sell them, if your a cruiser ok, but i prefer to be able to really drive mine!!
