    this is the exact reason why you post in the correct sections.

    You get the correct answer and not a lot of bullshit post supplying incorrect answers.

    If everyone posted in general chat because more people look at the threads all the threads would be filled with off topic crap and would be pointless for people searching (not that people even know what that is) because they wouldnt know if what what was true?

    Do you think the mods like to move all the threads everyday?

    Why not contact the company your buying off?

    well they said it can be anything between et 9 - 15 on a saxo

    they said 9 would be fine but not sure with a drop of 80mm
    i was wondering will they stick out really stupidly cos if they do i want to cancel it

    how can you say that?

    depends on the diameter and depth of the wheels.

    195mm and lowered 80mm is going to be an issue.

    Mine is down 60mm on the rear, 15s with 195 diameter. When I had three people in the back+holiday suitcases in the boot, I didn't have a single problem.

    What make model and size of wheel (width needed) are you running. What exact model of car do you have? What type of arches do you have?
