ATS cups...
« on: 14 August 2006, 10:21 »
I'm looking at getting myself a set of ATS cups, does anybody know if they come in 17"s as that wot i'm currently on, or would i be better suited with the 16s?

its all alot smoother with 15s..general driving, parking, bumps in the rd.. :laugh:
you also have to think about the stress 17s are gonna have on ur clutch n steering..
because of past experience, i wudn reccomend them on a mk1, yeah its sumthing dif, thats why i kept mine for so long, but its nicer with 15s.. :smiley:
