lol, I have the same rims as Robnuttall. 17 VIPs right?

 

[robnuttall]

They are indeed VIP 17" rims

The springs on my car are made by a company called SPAX. They lower the front 50mm and the rear 35mm.

curious Robnutall..what size tires are u using for those 17"? I bought 217/40s for them but I think they are not wide enough for the rims...someone suggested to me to get 225's ...only prob is 225/?what?

Thanks for the help!

Ray.

i have 215/40's on.....i've been told and have read that the 225's catch/rub on a bolt somewhere under the arches on the front when turning
