awww not good mate time to get her back up and running

 

[gtikezz]

wellll here they are all done ready for the tyres to go on ,
( which ime not doing untill next year so there is no way i get tempted on put them on )

 

[abhardwaj1990]

What size tyres you going for?

 

[gtikezz]

well at the mo thinking of getting 195 40 r16s

 

[suj]

40's? i'd go got 45's kezz, stop you pothole and killing them

 

[LMJ]

185/45/R16 if you can get that size, get a bit of stretch then lower?

 

[gtikezz]

it was only a idea guys

 

[abhardwaj1990]

As sujjy said, stay with 45s, but I'd go for lower than 195 imo, as lily said, 185-45 (if there is such a size). 195's always look too fat, also it'll sort your scrubbing issues out meaning moar lows

 

[suj]

would never run lower than a 195 on a mk2 ibiza IMHO, and never did, don't try and stretch on a 6J, stretch only when you need to (to legally get a wheel on)

 

[abhardwaj1990]

Wouldn't really be much stretch at all? The 195's on mine were really ballooned

 

[gtikezz]

so the 40s would not help the scrubbing issue then ?

ohhhh decisions decisions i will look into it more in a few weeks to be honest thinking of changing the 20s to 15s to sort the scrubbing issue out eather that or never have passengers in her then i dont have the problem to contend with

No, 40's would. but profile will be lower, making the wheels look smaller and might not fill the arches very well, and ride will be harder. But you never know, could look good

 

[suj]

then whats the point in putting a thinner tyre on Arun lol
Balloony depends on tyre make and sidewall, my Toyo T1-R's never looked balloony, looked spot on, same with the Falken 452's I had on the multispokes too

It will give a smaller sidewall Kezz, but if its scrubbing that bad, just put it up a little bit, find a good compromise

 

[gtikezz]

its not thatt bad unless i have passengers and go over a speedhump more than ermmm 10 - 15 mph , or say going 70 on the motorway

You know what I meant, I'm tired and talking jibberish x

just put it up a little bit, find a good compromise

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU SUJ



I prefer old suj







Kezz, just roll the arches very slightly, you'll be fine

Oh that's not too bad then, just (wo)man-up lol

Lol, nothing wrong, I just realised it was stupid running "that" low....but then again you know I am into track days etc, so in hindsight, was a bit dumb going that low lol

PS I still like stance etc, but I don't think I would run it again, unless I got a mk1 golf gti, but then i'd want it on the track...god damn hahaah

 

[LMJ]

Kezz - you know when you throw yours into corners, does it scrape your arch liners? Mine does , and sends my OCD out of the window!
