Yup I needed spacers for the front. The rim were hitting the calipers.

What an attractive car?!
Hey there!
Jus wanna say your car looks amazing!? How long have you had it? The 15 wheels came as standard didnt they? I think 17s would look absolute mint on your ride! I especially like the contrast the darker windows give it! Have you modded the engine in any way? Lori (aka Little Panda)Xx |

I especially like the contrast the darker windows give it! Have you modded the engine in any way? Lori (aka Little Panda)Xx Thank you. The car had 14" rims. I'm using 16" now. I like 17" rims but good tires for that are expensive. |
Thanx
Yea the 14 inch wheels come as standard over here in the UK (however these tend to look like 'little biscuits' compared to the 'chubby' appearance of the car, especially when seen next to the pick up truck wit 18" wheels) lol! just wondered if perhaps that was different elsewhere! Im planning to put 17 inch wheels on my baby once i get her, had mine designed for a while so really pleased its soon to become reality! How long have you had your car?

In Australia the GLi (1.3 DSI) and VTi (1.5 VTEC) come with 14" and the VTi-S (1.5 VTEC) comes with 15".
On the dirt tracks that they call roads in Sydney low profile tyres with big wheels last as long as the 1st pot hole. I had a set of 15" 50 profile Racing Sparco rims on a previous car which required one wheel to go in for repair every other month. A kidney belt is also required to withstand the constant jarring that hard suspension and low profile tyres bring on shocking roads. You'll probably have to roll the guards to fit 17s. 16" 45 profiles fit without a problem. |
Kidney Belt?!
What is a kidney belt Vivid???

Shaolin: before you start thinking about bodykits try to find out which Jazz model is coming to the US first. Ken1279's Jazz is the pre Facelift model (before 2005) that's why that particular Modulo kit fits. The kit will not fit on my Jazz. The 2005 has a new version of the Modulo Kit which I am getting... i will post pics when i get it installed.
