Looks well on these too, although stretch is for little girls ben.
They are being sold on Sunday mate unless you get in there before? Stretch is cool on the right car and a shuttle is the right car IMO.

They would have been close with bigger tyres mate. I wanted to be sure they would fit without rubbing so went for 165/50/15's

Not to worry man. I have no money anyways, would have tried to come to a deal with the ns2s if anything.

It rides pretty well with them on to be honest. Was quite surprised!

Been struggling to find the correct roof bars but looks like I have found them now. These should hopefully arrive in the week and I can get them and my roof box on for JAE.

Shuttle was looking really good at JAE Ben.
Wheels suit it very well even though I don't like stretched tyres.

My Mate John who was looking at the car, text me a few times to see if you wanted to sell it!
He is hell bent on getting a shuttle now.
