Tom_B Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 18's would look far too big TBH IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pro3mark Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 They wouldn't fit, without chopping half the car out, TBH.17's a maybe, 16s are mor realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartagram Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 17s are doable. Dunno about 18s, its more getting tyres that aren't stupid. You can go with 185/35/17 which has the same RR as 195/50/15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gucciwah Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 thats insane. 18s will be to big. it'l look daft. just a personal opinion though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 I think it'd be cool to see someone with a large Turbo do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gucciwah Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 get some big arches. lower it to f*** and get a huge body kit. side skirts and that, maybe it'l look ok then lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Of course you could always follow the crowd and fit some wide 15... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pro3mark Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 I still think 17's are the limit Even if that is damn cool, the only car that makes brakes look BIG behind 18s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99hjhm Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 You cant tell me this isnt cool?No.... It needs 19's!You could flip it over or buckle the chassis with those brake calipers on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_lupz Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Tigz you know its only cool when its running twin 6v's.18" on a 65bhp 1.l is a big fail.i think my 14" look too big some times.13" WTF!BTW is it a gti or lower model>?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigz™ Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I like 17s on a Lupo.Some of my favourate Lupos from back in the day ran 17s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartagram Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I'm going to run 17s on mine at one put but when I find the right wheels. Thats the thing I Like about the Lupo it suits wheels from 13"-17". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobblers Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) 17s will fit fine with 185/35/17s - I'd have fitted these TT comps but I lost interest, and adapters would have pushed them too far out.Just make sure you lower it plenty I couldn't find any tyres that were small enough to allow 18s to be fitted without a lot of grinder action - They are all 205s or wider.
