corsa D 1.3 cdti 5door facelift model

Hard to say without knowing the sizes but they do look good. I'm guessing they are bigger diameter rims too?

http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

This site helps you calculate what tyres to put on to keep the rolling radius the same if you change rims. Like if you have 195/60/15 you need 205/50/16. Otherwise you can end up with your speedo way out and in some cases trigger esp systems.
 
It also messes up the ride height and risks tyre/wheelarch impact.

I have my own spreadsheet for doing the rolling diameter calculation. You can generally stray 5mm or so either side without difficulty.
 
I have 17s and they are 18s as long asi can get lower rigie tyers should be ok but il see wen it come to it
 
Hay guys just put these in only a few lights left to change then its the big task of doing the dials lol20160629_015502.jpg

Thanks for the updates, it's looking good. What's the next phase of your project then or are you going to wait until winter is finished?
 
I have a vxr rear bumper sat in garage waitin to be sprayed and now im just lookin for a fined duel exit diffuser.then when bumpers are done im going to change head lights and get rears tinted. But most of this wrk will be in the new year. As i need to sell my old facelift front bumper also for some cash lol.
 
Very nice. Most projects are on hold through winter, then in spring they all start off again. That trend is reflected in our site visitor numbers which tail off slightly in winter, thankfully the southern hemisphere are entering their summer and their numbers pick up again.
 
Ok so i went to PVS on sunday with most mods done on the car so heres my 5 door in most of its glorry20180623_115615.jpg 20180623_115608.jpg
