   Best bet would be to go to the photoshop & ask somebody to photoshop them on a pic of your car.Personally i`ve seen better wheels mate.

   Im sure I seen a set of these on a 106, they looked awesome
   
   But if they are 13's you will need some serious lows to make em look ok......
   
   Anddd.... it depends on the rest of the car

   I'm not at all into these euro look wheels. Not at all.
   
   But its your car. Some people hate aspects of my car, am I bothered? Nope

    As said, for them to look good your going to need to go low

    Dont worry the front is already pretty low, waiting on a rear beam to replace my slightly bent one then that will be lowered as well
    
    the whole things been put on hold anyway now that some little thug decided to put my back window through last night

    adapters on eBay. and pretty low isn't low enough. it needs to be borderline undriveably ( made up word) low. have you got springs or coilovers?

    how low is pretty low
    
    people think there low at like 60mm
    previously we made a vtr 105 at the front 100 rear that was low
    was on 15s too haha
    
    for 13s you need to be at least 90mm imo

    its dropped about 75 on the front, only because I live up a lane that resembles a ploughed field haha, next stop will be coilovers and a cheaper alternative to air ride for the front thanks to Fresh UK Autos I think
    
    and the wheels are getting tyres this week as well just not sure what to go for or to stretch a little ect
