ok well it seems ill get my head taken off cos I have 20's with standard breaks... but on an XT...

had no problems fitting them on, only problem was getting the ride height sitting nicely... be careful if u go big wheels and try and make the sill @ an even height in the front and rear because camber will play a massive role, the cammed bolts on the stub axel can only corret approx 1 degree of camber on the XR's so anythng lower than super low springs in the rear and your gonna run into trouble...

I guess you could argue that 18" is a factory option, so 20" would be legal (using your argument, I got no idea)? :laughing:

19" are available with GT-P now.

I'm not really a fan of anything over 19" on BAs, especially if chrome. That Blueprint XR looks like one of those Dub City diecast models you see at Toys R Us.

Actually of all the BAs I've seen with 20s the white XT looks the best IMO.

I think 19s are the right size for the ba

I originally wanted 20's because I thought bigger was better but im glad I got 19's instead :crybaby:

Nice wheels mate, I was looking at getting some similar ones but changed my mind. What are they called and what size (width) are they?

they are called impul, a guy was selling some on the forum a while ago

they are 8.5 inch wide front and rear, could have got the 9.5 for the rear but insurance companys are a bunch of c*#ts

Each to their own people.

For me I love em and have had nothing but great comments from all I have spoken to and seen the car in the flesh.

I have 225/35 on the front which fit the 8.5inch rim just fine and 245/35 on the rear at the moment - these will be getting wider when these ones fry out. I will be running 275's with MT's on my drag rims.

Big brakes are on the way - gotta have something to fill the gap - $6K or so for a decent set is not small potatoes so it all takes time
