Do get a bit of rubbing on the front in full lock, also had the inner plastic arch remolded a bit on the rear. Will go with the 30 next time as you said.

I have black 19's on my red misano with B7 tyre profile. not the ideal choice as they do make the wheels look smaller and the car sits about 20mm higher (Ground to bumper) but it helps with the sleeping policemen!!!

not overly happy with the looks , new profile would make world of difference, ought to post some pics really!!

20mm offset and it rubs ever so slightly but only on full lock, rubs on the plastic inner wing.

Hmmm not my thing i'm afraid, but as said, each to their own and would be interested to see it in the flesh tosee how it looks.
