Title: 8x15 vs 7x15 Wheels...
Post by: Dub_Dude_16v on 06 October 2006, 16:16

Right gonna get some new rims for my car but hard decision to make on what size to get.

the choice is 8x15 et 25 or 7x15 et 35  :huh:

I haven't got my arches rolled but if need be it's going in for a respray soon so could get that done. What have people who have 8x15 had to do?

Cheers guys n girls  :smiley:
