The team dynamics are worth more. Get them, if you don't like them sell them on and buy vtr wheels and have some spare gash.

thatl cause you problems wont it 16s and lowered 60mm on the back i deffinatly agree with the vts wheels or 15s i dont like the vtr wheels that much so i say get vts rims or any other 15s u like.

will 16s cause problems?

why this?:wall:

they may rub if cars lowered too much

[SAM33R]

no i sold a gti lowered well on 16s and it looked the bollucks and didnt rub on a full car... your wanna go about 40-50 front and 60 rear

[9Freedman9]

I have 16's with spacers, then again my car is as high as a horse lol.

[9Freedman9]

I would imagine they will rub though.

[SAM33R]

not just a case of crappy springs

vtr/vts/gti have stiffer ARBs

you might wanna uprate shocks all around

16's rub if the tyre profile is 195/45/16, lowered 60mm at the back you wont even get down the road as it will rub on every bump in the road unless you start angle grinding around the rear wheel arch area. This is exactly what happened to me when i got 16in wheels

If the tyres on the 16in wheels are 195/40/16 then you will be fine lowered 60mm at the back.

So the way to go is either:
16inch wheels with 195/40/16 tyres
15inch wheels with 195/45/15 tyres
Or 14inch wheels where tyre size is less of an issue, commonly 185/50/14 or 185/45/14

The wheels i PM'd you about wont rub at the back and only catch on the front if the car is at full lock and at a dodgey angle.

Also when choosing wheels what about the colour of you car and the rims???
