Okay, I know this wont be to everybody's taste but I just wanted to see what you all think.
I'm currently sandblasting my sawblade 15" wheels and I'm going to spray them also.
But its the tyres I'm having different thoughts about,
Would it look silly with low profile tyres on? I don't want the wheels to look lost in the arches.
Also by getting lower a lower profile I would have to go skinnier too.
Has anybody else done this? Does it or would it look strange? I'm thinking 185, 45, 15

i did consider it, would be interested to see what they look like with some 195/40's on them, think you'd have to get some spacers and wind your coilovers down pretty low to make them look sweet though!

Thing is I only have the lowering springs on, couldn't and can't afford the coilovers, I just really like the standard wheels, but the tyres are huuuge
