#117494 The only one I can really answer is the rim size one...

and the answer is:

15s and 16s.

You will have more problems with the 16s depending on the width and offset. The 15s will be easier to get on there.

#117582 ok so 16's will fit without rolling arch's?

if thats true thats great at the moment im looking at ro_ta J.SPL in 16's or ro_ta boost in 15 or 16

also whats the strange fabric/pvc type thing with to blocks on i see in lots of pics over the front lip of the bonnet/hood? why?

#117662 ok , nice that would save my bonnet then could take it off at the track to do some laps because i bet under hard breaking it would affect wind flow and high speed cornering as well
