my mk2 was slammed big style on 17's but with pleanty of arch work... i've since put 40mm and it looked like it was on stilts, so i put 15's on and it looks a little bit better...

i'd save your money and buy some coilies and then just wind them down and see...


noble tuned - and still not fast enough!
