    I gotta set of pug wheels...for my saxo ... Fine ok?

    NOPE! the wheels were rubbing like mad , got my self a set of 5mm spacers , and still rubbing when i turn round corners , go over speed bumps , not when going straight.

    enjoy the joys of lowering your car mate, only car i never had scrubage with was my golf and that ran 15's with a 110mm drop, flared inner arches and g60 plastic arches.

    Edit : on a more helpfull note, get a can of spray paint, spray the inner arches where you think it may be catching and go round the block getting as much full lock as you can. the wheels will rub the new paint off easily leaving blank patches. Take a hammer to the blank patches, repaint go round the block, hammer again until no more paint comes off.

    hammer motorsport does not take responsibility for the carnage that follows.lol

    i had a set of high gloss pug cyclones on my old westie... and they rubbed like a mother fucker, had to put low pro's on and 20 mm spacers! (spacers not needed, but looked pimp!)

    just chuck a set of VTR rims on. cheaper than buying all new low pro's.

    chuck your pug wheels on ebay after they have had a lick of paint.

    everything i have had a new set of rims (always get them cheap on ebay, dont rush, bide your time) i have had them powder coated, then removed my old ones and give them a rub down a d a spray. then you will get more for them.

    everytimne i have swapped rims i have ended up being up on the deal and having a better set of rims!

    The tyre profile is wrong.

    You need 185/55/14 tyres for a start.

    Get some spacers on it...10mm ones

    I had 16" Nimrods on my 106 lowered about 100mm and didnt rub one bit
