1. what is the maximum size of wheels(inch) I can go to place on my saxo without modifying anything like making the arches wider. (btw it's not a VTs/r if that makes any difference)

2. How do I place another exhaust pipe (not the whole line so only a muffler tip) ? Because my standard exhaust pipe is pointing down to the ground so if I'd place one I guess logically the tip would also be looking down ?? But I don't want to saw a piece off my original exhaust or something.

thx!

you can safely put 15 inch wheels with 195/45/15 tyres.. all you need to do is fold the lip on the rear arch up so it is level with the bodywork...



exhaust.. u can get exhaust trims.. but they a bit buy a just a backbox.. vtr/1.4 backboxes will fit.. vts have a bigger bore, so dont think they fit..

So not 16" ?

And what is a backbox, is it the whole last part of the exhaust ? do you have a picture of it maybe ?

and what is the price of this approx. ?

thx

All right everyone? I just got a Saxo 1.1 Desire (couldnt afford insurance for a VTS ) and it it a little heap of crap i was just wondering if there is a wide range of body styling and parts to modify my motor cos all the ones i have seen advertised are VTS/VTR hopefully one day i get a VTS and not have this problem. SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE !!!!!!!!

Get the VTR/S arches and door pannels and your away with anything you want
Best place is a scrappy for them.
