What wheels and size have you got?
« on: 27 January 2014, 21:04 »
Looking for wheels for my bora basically it's jazz blue.
I like the idea of a wider rear and a very slight stretch

I'm running 18x8 with 205/35/18 which gives a little stretch.

I'm running 8.5j fronts and 9.5j rear running 215 on the front and 225 on the rears. I did require 15mm spacers on the front mind.

I'm soon goin to be running 18" landrover mondials on my bora, with custom adapters and 225/40s. If u want something different than most golf/boras you should look into custom adapters :)
