Sebrings FTW!  :grin: :lipsrsealed: (cept if you wanna wash them, then they're a PITA)


They might be heavy but I recall you saying you like the look of them Mr T  :shocked:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

They look a lot better than cross-spokes, but weigh far too much.

My car came with 185-55-15's on RA's

According to the handbook, 185-55's and 195-50's are listed for 15" wheels.

Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
