Honest answer? Let's just say I need to update my insurance!!

Spacers look great!! I may just "forget" to tell them until renewal date and then source the cheapest quote. I'll be 29 then with 10yrs no-clains (hopefully) so the quote shouldn't be that bad

Got my 19's fitted today. Thought the tyres would be pants, but are actually very good. All in the price was £830 with delivery and got 4x 19" RS8 Alloys, locking nuts, 16 alloy nuts and 4x 235/35/19 Uniroyal Rainsport tyres!!!!!!!!!

In a word BARGAIN!!!!!

Why is it not sensible thing to do?

because there will be a tendency for ur tires to hit the wheel arch..scrape...scrape..
so go slow over those bumps n humps but i reckon ur V1 will be hard enough
next u wud be rollin ur fenders ya....haha
realli nice ASA u got...looks like the CHs..

btw, I tot 235/3/19 will give the wide look w/o spacers!!??

The V1's are very hard so I am sure you will be right.

I may not fit the spacers with the ASA's on as I am not too sure how wide they will be once on the car, I guess I will find out in the Summer.

My new alloys are 235/35/19 with an offset of 35, the same as yours. No real room for spacers IMO without the arches being rolled.

Thanks mate, believe me that your not the only one, with all this Sun of late in Leamington Spa, I have been getting close to sorting some rubber out for these wheels and getting them on the car earlier than planned!!
