Ive just bought a set of OZ superlegrra in that black finish 15" size with toyo proxes with 195/45 tyres. I was going to get black monzas but i was told that they dont make them anymore! but those OZ's cost me 450 brand new which isnt bad. my cars lowered 60mm will they catch much? also what do peole think of they tyres i got. do i need to grind the arches much?

What offset are the wheels?

U will prob need the rear arches cutting back, as u av got a mk2 tho that should be all u need really depending on the offset...

Seeing as you've got the standard offset (lucky f***) then they should fit ok, you might need to get the rear arches folded though

LMFAO i wouldnt trust it i would turn over the wheel and have a look at what it says on them.

The guys in Halfords are told to tell you what you want to here, not what is true.
