165-185/35/17's now available

these have a smaller diameter than a 195/45/15 by about half an inch, and are about quarter of an inch smaller than 185/60/13's. not to mention narrower

for those thinking about 17's under standard arches (with the right wheels i reckon it might look pretty good)

What is the point of them exactly? You might as well paint the outside of the rim black and be done with it

[seventynine]

think they are aimed at the euro guys who would stretch a set over an 8 or 9 inch wheel and put them on a golf or similar.

i much prefer that to the over streched look, although probably wont suit classics as much, good to have the option i guess

PMSL! i saw you had replied to this thread on the main page and thought to myself "i bet he likes it cos he's from west london"

and hey presto! thats what ya said.

I like 'em to, thats the west london massif' coming out in us (i grew up in Ealing/southall BTW)

im originally from near sheffield. but yeah must be the last 5 years rubbing off on me.

i walk past 2 honda civics every day (one early 90s and the other late 90s) and i keep thinking 'yeah they dont look too bad' both slammed to the floor, not massive wheels and some other 'tasteful' mods... i dont know why i like them, its just not right

[boXXer]

so right, but so wrong! lol.

Those wheels above would look mint on a mk1 golf literally sat on its ass.

1 decent pot hole = 1 fooked rim!

Wouldn't fancy driving anything with them on very far, unless you're good mates with a chiropractor and hold your fillings in with self tappers.........
