I'd fit a solid single rear wheel, the Width of the car. A bit like a steamroller. Grip would be 'emmence'

Didn't think you'd be able to back it up Loon. Just following suit as usual

I'm not interested in getting into a debate with someone who's so defensive and still wet behind the ears

r8by what are you asking Haroon to back up?

FWIW I think your Works are much better than the LMs--you don't often see them in the UK (especially on an S2000) and they do suit the style you're trying to achieve. Apart from the size you've been offered, BBS are too common IMO. Don't get me wrong though, LMs are still

Yeah I did like the works but they were mega heavy!

I'd just like him to back up "they're to
big for the car" that statement he made, I forever see people making statements on here with no knowledge or factual information to back it up.

As in reality these LMs sit a measly 2mm further inwards from
the arches than his did

Ahh, I didn't realise--get rid of them then

The question you asked "I can't decide which to go for or if to kee2p to a similar sort of style to what I have now..?"

The answer you got "the proposed size is way too big for the car."
and "IMO 10" is too wide and the tyres you want to run will look too stretched."
from 2 people so what is your problem? Why just have a go at the Loon? Why not have a go at chrisr111 as well?
