personally, i'd run 195/40/16 falkens on 7j & 8j to give a subtle stretch on the rears
if you're feeling scene run 165/40/16 nankangs all round  (i wouldn't do this if i were you)

I can 
Only a few on here that think to the edge of the box never mind outside it.
D90's have been done on quite a few, there is so many other wheels which would look just as nice if not nicer in the price bracket on d90's with adapters.
Just my opinion though
i agree that d90's aren't the best wheels ever, but compared to cav slabs (which is why this topic was posted), i can't see how anyone could say that it d90's aren't the nicer of the two.
Someones personal opinion? I love slabs and hate D90s, I'm not into the euro scene
the results of the poll show that most prefer d90's, i suppose the bonus in preferring slabs would be that they're alot cheaper

Its quite easy to do if you know how, but your better off going to a small fitter rather than a big name one as they will refuse and give you a big lecture on it.

t1rs have a soft tyre wall so they concave when theyre stretched and look abit naff. falken 912s are your best bet and theyre not too expensive
