sheldo, 9" on rear look wicked, stick to 7.5 fronts tho.

9" with et01 will not work, the offset is too low and you'll have major problems with rubbing with arch lip.

thats what i thought nav. Have pulled my bid off of ebay and have tried to contact a few zoners that may have some up for sale. I thought 9j on the rear would look fat and as you said 7.5 possibly 8s on the front as i know my car has had these in 8 all round before and they were fine.

Wish id had the money at the time to buy them off of dave when i got the car.
