The only problem with 10j is you cant get tyres. Or more to the point, you can, just there bloody expensive! I think i've got some of the widest 13inch tyres available at 215/50/13 and there £126 a pop! There probably your best shot for 10j, but it aint cheap :shock: Thomas............

That black saloon on them arches looks ridiculous to be honest - it always has. I think the satin black hides a multitude of fitment sins. That rear arch spat especially just looks so wrong.

Attack - your car will be looking awesome on them when a bit lower :)
