205's will catch.

Post on here if you are happy/unhappy with colin smith when you receive parts.

He sent me a coscast head and some dtm mirrors. Th head wasn't coscast and the mirrors had been removed with a hammer.

He ignores/ignored my mail.

I hope you have better luck!

Xzibit, with most of the reports I have heard, I would suggest that the only safe way is to collect and pay cash with Colin, I also belive that ?350 is a good price if you can't afford new, and lets face it, most can't.

if ur putting them on a mk1, like it says under ur name on the left, then u will have even more trouble. Get ur arches sorted while ur waiting for 'em.

if you look through his feedback on ebay. 98% of it seems good. maybe people on here have just been unlucky?

if your in doubt about them rubbing go for 195/45v16. but try the 205's first. good luck mate. :)
