        ^ looking good. I think 15's are an awesome choice. I am pretty sad though that less and less companies are continuing to make 15" performance tires. I just checked out Toyo's new lineup of tires and it includes hardly any.

          Thanks man. Same here, I love the look of 15's. I was a bit disappointed with the sizing of RS3's though, very tiny. Still, the grip levels they give combined with ~$450 shipped cannot be beat.

                Soon it will have the correct sound and tire smoke to back it up :)

                      ^ You sir, are winning. 15"s are the perfect size for a daily. I really like the bra as well.

                            That looks soo sick! Im running 205/50-15's all around on my RS, this is making me realize i should run 195/50's on the front next time.

                            While im here, here are mine

                            BBS RS189
                            -15x7.5 ET19 - Running 15mm spacer up front for now
                            -15x8.5 ET6
                            -Minor fender rolling in the rear as well as the front.
                            -Falken 512's in 205/50-15.

                              Thanks mate, your car looks awesome btw, love the color scheme :p I would have thought your tires would be sitting pretty much exact where mine would be sitting with those specs, except maybe the front since you are running a fair size spacer.

                              Mine scrub slightly at the rear, but only when hitting a sizable bump in the road.

                                Thanks :up:

                                Yeah i want to run a smaller spacer up front but need to look into that a bit more. Mine were rubbing in the back too in hard cornering or if we hit a nasty bump, but i took a heat gun and a rubber mallet and flattened it enough to get it to clear :ohsnap:
