Good to see you got some sorted and on.....gold and black works really well, can't go wrong! What widths/tyres did you end up going for?

    One of mine on it's RS from late last year(looks better if you click and zoom).....

    Yeah man, got some good advice from you In the end i rebuilt the wheels with 6" barrels and 3" and 4" lips. So they measured up roughly at 9.5j and 10.5j. Fitted a set of 215/45 on the front and 235/45 on the rear. Made a mistake and ordered a 235/45 for the front as well which resulted in ripping my bumper off haha.

    Yours is sitting perfect at the back, I'm going to sort mine out soon, i cant go any lower at the rear without machining the strut housings (aluminium so easily done), a wee project for the autumn. I've dropped the front another 20mm, so it sits much nicer than in those pics.

    Any more plans for yours? New wheels looks awesome!

    Thanks man I don't have the exact offsets, but i basically rebuilt the original BBS RSs with 6" barrels all-round, 3" dishes up front and 4" dishes at the rear.
    The fronts don't have much room on the inside, was literally clearing the srut by a baw-hair, so using a 10mm spacer there but the rear's have heaps of room, like everyone says, an 11" rim would fit in there no bother. But i couldn't find a 5" dish

    Got some work to do still, the rear needs to be a dropped a wee bit an maybe the front, not ideal on the Scottish roads though.
