[center]A few weeks later, my 19\" Wolfrace alloys and spax overcoils came through the post and i took them up so that he could put them on but i had a slight problem, for some unknown reason my dad had told the bodyshop man that it was going on 17s, As you can see from the pics above that it was on a spare set of 17s, so after many discussions we found that the hole bodykit had to be remove and the arches cut out and remaded.[/center]

Could get very very very tidy 1.4 or 1.6 for that with lots left to spend on mods, and would, in my opinion look far far better.

Or

You could have done what marky has done and still have money for the extra insurance.
