Will the 12's not be too narrow for your arches? Nothing more silly looking than being over arched!

I'm not a 13's fan really, but they look pretty good there, deep dish suits well.

:lol:

They wont fill the arches as much as the 13"s so might look a bit odd.

If you changed the arches for some narrower ones it should look pretty good.

some better pictures of the car might help though

wheels look good so some black grp2's or w+p ones would be perfect.....with the black trim strip :0)

if youre worried about them being too narrow, some spacers and longer studs may help you out if you like the look of the arches :lol:

thanks for the advice :lol:

think id rather change the arches rather then use spacers etc..

but know what u mean, to put them straight on they would look a bit odd mayb

pity tho cause they are nice wheels, altho think the superlites are worth a little more.

if you get the correct length stud and decent strong spacers, you shouldnt have any problems with them :lol:

Does this swap, 13s for 12s, not mess up the speedo? Surely the rolling radius changes.
