pics needed please

[LFCJosh]

of a mk2 ph1 non sport, 60mm suspension but with 13" wheels.

anyone got pics?

thanks

 

[Laura]

I dont think they actually fit

 

[Ian]

Not sure many people, if anyone, will have done this? Mine came with 14" alloys as standard, but not heard of any smaller than that - OEM or aftermarket.


Edit: This is mine with 14's. Doesn't look to be much space spare.

I agree with Laura, Im sure 13s dont fit over the calipers

 

[LFCJosh]

oh maybe im thinking of 14's then, whatever the standard steels are...talking about non sport btw

just wanna see if theres bad arch gap

 

[Ian]

With those tyres on the overall diameter is almost exactly the same as the 16's I now have on, so the gap will be the same. However with the smaller profile tyres on the 16's it looks like more of the wheel is sat inside the arch.

14's:

16's:

That's on standard suspension. Iirc the gap is roughly the height of a clenched fist, so about 7-8cm I reckon.

well my cars on 60mm suspension atm, got a little idea i wanna try involving my old steelies.
wanna see how the stance looks first though and i cant be assed swapping my wheels over just 'to see'.

cheers though man.

 

[Ian]

No worries.

Closest I can find is this, from this thread. Again no drop though.
