Does anyone have a set of these? Im after them for the tasmin.. I reckon i could just about fit a set of 18*9's with a few body mods but 16's might be easier if anyones got them. Getting the ride height down low enough might be difficult on 18's.

Handy for part worn tyres though..

Oh and if anyones got an odd tsw that would be usefull

If you want to run the car low you'll have to mod the bodywork for slix even with the 16s at the front and rear. I picked up a couple of 16'' Compos from Moore Racing at the start of the season, they had a few so may have some left.

Thats a thought I'll ask rich although the compos are a bit heavy and the mo's only come in 16*8 ideally i want 9 inches wide. they do do modulars that i can have upto about 12 inches... might be fun on the back...

I only fitted the 16'' x 8J rims cos it allowed me to use the 235 Dunlop slix. If you're planning to use Dunlop I don't think they have a tyre wider than this on a 16.
