morgsVR6 0 Posted May 3, 2006 I know this topic has been covered previously but couldnt find any info for my specific situation so hope you guys can help... Just purchased a set of borbet a's from germany, 9x16s all round. Got a standard vr6 which i'm planning to fit 40mm lowering springs to. The wheels are et15 so my main question is, will these bad boys go straight on without any arch work? I saw on other threads that there was a bit of a debate over 205 or 215 tyres.....I like the stretched look but does anyone out there have 205s on a set of 9" borbet a's? Finally, how low should I or can I go with these? I havent fitted the 40mm lowering springs yet, so wanted to check if its low enough before I do..... I dont want to go so low that I cause any rub, but I dont want any unnecessary space between arches and wheels either.... Appreciate any help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pkripper 0 Posted May 3, 2006 I doubt 40 will be low enough to give the right look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gradeAfailure 0 Posted May 3, 2006 get 215/40 tyres, but with ET15 on a VR you will not get them on without the arches being pulled/extended I'm afraid... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
