PICS ON 18" AND LOWERED(plz) AND ADVICE

[jay]

i want to put on 18" wheels on my bravo 1.2 but i would like to know if it is possible to put on 18" without it rubbing and if it is possible how can i prevent the rubbing thanks.....

Yes they will fit but make sure...

1. Make sure the shock absorbers are in good condition.

2. Roll the arches.

3. Remove front wheel arch liners to prevent rubbing.

4. Dont fit a bodykit unless its been modified to compensate for the 18's.

5. Why bother!

Do what you want. You now know they fit so get on with it.

ok then, if you want to look cool, then yeah . . put 17" and lower it (should consider speed bumps if you've got any spoilers) . . if you want some perfomance . . . buy HGT and put 19" as Dave did !

I've got 17's on mine and its not lowered and I think it looks perfectly fine as it is. There are a lot of speedbumps around where I live, so lowering isn't really an option, but I think it looks good with just the 17's... see what you think:
