:lol: :lol: alrighty then! I guess if you're gonna hack away the bumpers you could fit any size wheels :facepalm: Why not just wait until the bit of the tyre that rubs on the mudguards wears away with the friction being generated...?

Call me crazy, but all I'm saying is that if it were me (and I'm very well aware it isn't), I would get wheels and tyres that actually fit the car.

Have we not all decided those wheels and tyres are the wrong size?

Yes but it's not opinion, it's fact. They ARE the wrong size for good fitment. :lol:

I'm in agreement with you ;)
