Hello everyone,

 

I've been getting all the info from the site for a couple of months now and i've gone and done it, yes, I've gone and brought a 94 J-Spec SZ and my face is so sore because I have this stupid grin on my face. Yes I know its not a TT but I don't care Im loving it.:D

 

The headlights were absolutely badgered and I put UK spec headlights in and I want to put 17s on the wheels instead of the stock 16s, Can I just whack them on or do I need to do anything?

 

Thanks guys and gals you helped me make my mind up.

Hi Max, welcome.

 

I really need to get my eyes tested. I read the subject of this thread as

"New BOV" then I started reading your post and I was like "SZ? Why's he want a BOV for an SZ?" :D

Welcome welcome from the soop and specifically the N/A community.

 

Stock 17's will just swap straight over and from here can be found for much cheapness generally complete with tyres. I paid £425 for mine fully refurbed with virtually new eagle F1 tyres on. Beware of buying after market jobs as you then get into offsets and stuff so ensure you get ones that are suitable for soops. Also with after market alloys try and ensure that they will allow the UK brakes to fit under in case you ever want to do that MOD. Another thing to bear in mind is that soop wheels are wider on the back (its not just the tyres that are wider its the wheels as well).

 

Hope that helps a bit fella.

Welcome aboard Max, Enjoy the car. That grin will be there for a long time to come!! It's absolutely true what dangerous said, although, have you thought about some nice lookin after-market alloys which most peeps on here have, and will make the car look so much nicer!?!

True. I've posted it before but for Max's benefit here's some before and after pics of my car with Std 17'' wheel and then new 18'' wheels.
