Im called Rob mate but thanks for the heads up, do you recommend having a camber on the wheels, does it take away practicality, and drive ability? Looking to have the back dish slightly larger than the front. Any pointers on this. Thanks in advance.

I'm led to believe that anything other than 15 bbs wheels take away the driveability but its your car and you do what ever you want bud! Facebook page is more into the stance scene mate. Or send Pacerpete or Rav a pm :D

Bbs rs 003's.

But if you can't find a set, then the offerings from lenso or dare look similar.

Whatever wheels you end up with, ensure that the ends of the bolts holding the rears in place don't protrude significantly more through the rear hub than standard, or you will destroy the handbrake mechanism.
