stay away from 9's. 9's are overrated and cause no end of problems

how bad...worse than a good refurb could put right?  I'd happily take em rather than the Azev C's 7.5x16"s that still bloody scrub even with rolled arches!!  Give you £20 a wheel! :grin: LOL...

On saying that...I should save a good few£s and get the Borbets with flat centre's or the Azev A's...and bugger the scrubbing.  :evil:

I am not worry about the width problem as body work isnt a problem for me. going for 9" all round need the wide tyres to be albe to take the vr6 power..

I want 9's all round so bad!
How much work needs doing to the arches and is a realistic option to fit 9's on a daily driver??
As well getting the arches sorted will putting such wide wheels on cause other problem like wheel bearings wearing quickly?

Has anyone got a picture of 9's on the back and 7.5's on the front?

Does or has anyone run 9's all around on there car?

Cheers
