| Your rims look nice and car very clean by the way, it was a toss up between the two differnt 6 spokes the mgf and tf has I dont really like the 5 spoke so much. |

Hi, what tyre size is on them and if had a set would I have to modify/roll the arches or raise the car's height to prevent rubbing or catching on the arch? |

| 195 45 15 tyres, the alloys need 3mm profiled off they inner if you wanted to sit them correctly and the rear radius needs 5mm grinded off then, but I kept alloys stock and used a 3mm wheel spacer on back to sit it out 6mm from standard on back and 3mm wider on front, all wheels clear no rubbing but ive got a tf subframe up front with rear shocks so rides high and the rear cans are running 450psi standard rods to get the clearence the car is high though but handling is stiff and decent enough |
