Guest cul08r Guests Posted 12/02/04 10:37 PM Posted 12/02/04 10:37 PM Owna, sorry I missed yr post. The details of my agreement with Hoon are confidential (I can't remember). If you have a look at whiteline.com.au you might see that they are about $160 ea plus fitting. I fitted myself in about half an hour with a trolley jack in my garage.Rowlan, search the galeries for pics of Ts with 17s and lowered. In any case, the 19s on my car are the same rolling diameter, so they will sit the same distance into the guard as 17s would.Andrew

Why I'm asking, is sometimes just puting bigger rims on a car makes them look lower. Standard rims on a lowered car sometimes doesn't look right. Hope that's not the case with XR's.

I prefer comfort over go-kart handling these days.

Guest cul08r Guests Posted 14/02/04 05:45 AM Posted 14/02/04 05:45 AM Again, we're talkin personally here, but I think that 17s on a BA look way too small, as the size of the wheel arch is quite large. I think the 18s are borderline, and 19s and 20 look trick, but only if the car is lowered.Andrew
