DrJustice 0 Posted April 19, 2007 Hi bradvr6! Nice choice of rims there! IMNSHO and with bucketfulls of bias, the Carmonas are the perfect rim for the Corrado - just listen to the two words spoken together :lol: Well, to the point. This is my experience with Carmona: I got my G60 with the 9" on the rear. The car was lowered no more than 50mm. The rear wheels was just too big, even with undersized tire width (stretched, is that what you call it?), and they would rub the raches on even small bumps. I quickly ordered a pair of 7.5" for the rear. With a fresh set of dampers and springs, still dropped ca. 40-50mm, I have seen no more rubbing (the front was always fine). BTW, they're shod with 205/45. DJ -- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DrJustice 0 Posted April 24, 2007 I live in Norway, so I'm still on winter wheels. The Carmonas are for the summer. I'll try and remember to put up a picture when i change in a month or so. With 205/45 on the 7.5" there is no stretching. Looks like a perfect fit to me. DJ -- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
