[puregttipower]

Hi guys im new to the world of rotary :cool  my first quetion is my friend is selling me a set of rims, they are 19" offset 45, width 8.5 on all four and the tyre size 255/40 and pcd is 5x114.3, i have stock suspension, can i make these fit with mods etc,
cheers guys

They will fit buddy and know there are a few guys running 19\'s at present. But, i have driven FD\'s with 17\'s and 19\'s and to be honest didnt like the feel of the car with 19\'s, felt kinda heavy and unresponsive + at 8.5 they are not overly wide enough for the rear, could really do with at least 9, 9.5 or 10" wide! That just my opinion though!

The 40 profile is to high for 19" at 255, speedo will be out by 5 mph at 60.
