Icy, stop being picky :P

nah man.. Kahn's in 15's only go up to et 35.. daves were 35 as well, i searched through some old threads. :)


Anyway.. been out and tried the rears.. theyre fine :cool: I took the archs off just incase, and i reckon im gonna file the metal back a bit more, just to be on the safe side.

Should be cool when finished :thumbs:

if you do get a bit of rubbing then just bang the inner arch out with a rubber mallet this will give you an extra couple of mm's of clearance from the side wall

6.5 x 17 et35, you will have more problems than you can imagine

but if they are 6.5 x15 et35 on a 195/45 profile tyre & u'll be fine

Just got myself a set of Kahns RSR's, 6.5x15" problem is.. et 35. I never thought to ask coz they came off a corsa :(

Am i gonna have problems when it comes to lowering the car? Just bought a new FK full kit... 60 front/40 back, but ive already 60 springs if the back aint low enough for me these.

So... 6.5x17" et35, 195/45/15, lowered 60mm. Am I gonna be fucked here
:boggle:
