Thinking of selling my Azevs on my cab, and was wondering what 15 inch BBS RS or RM's would like like 9inch wide.

Want to buy a set but not sure if 15's would be too small

anyone?

I read properly. Did you? Anyway back on topic, I think 15's look
too small especially in 2 or 3 piece form such as rs and rm.

cheers for the reponse guys

that last pic looks fat!

i would love 16"rs but in 4x100 they start at around 1000 pounds. Needed to see what 15inch deep dish would look like.

i need those wheels too

Somewhere in the neighborhood of $2000 USD maybe a bit more for
a fully restored set.

how low would i need to go for the 15's to fill the arches?

Tinnie you need to stop everything, go outside and put those
wheels on. To pull off stretched tires and wide wheels you need to
slam the car, especially the front, I had to drop mine about 70mm in the front to fill the wheel wells.

I rub only backing out of driveways on the left rear arch, I rolled the
fender lips flat in the rear as wel, I took out the rear spacers to tuck them in some and now I have zero rubbing.

deffo an arch roll jobbie then :roll: i wanted to avoid that but it looks like its gonna be the only way if i slam the touring, however the front wheels i feel are gonna be a right bit*h! they stick out about 15mm past the front wing winkeye should look nice though once its done!

what are you like for ground clearance? many scraping issues?

Well my front lip is less than 2" off the ground and forget about the oil
pan, the roads are well maintained where I live so I'm lucky, if I have to go anywhere far I use the wifey's SUV. :D
