hey everyone. I brought these off ebay months and months ago but never got around to installing them but now im kicking myself as they add a whole lot more sexy to my car.

(I know the car needs a real good wash)
But the other reason im posting here is that after iinstalling these i noticed that there a bit loose and was wondering if there is any adhesive i could use to stick them down? Also im thinking of lowering my car but was wondering if i should wait to i get my new rims or wont it matter?

If you get the mags before you lower, it wont look as good, as you will have the 4wd look. if i were you i would lower it first then get the mags as i did the opposite and regretted it.

Nice? Yes. Worth their own thread? Nope.lol
About the fit...were your orange ones loose?
Maybe you need to put two lots of rubber behind them. Could you use the rubbers from the orange ones?
My orange ones were so loose that I would sometimes find them just hanging on. Haven't had that problem with the clear ones.:cool:

Legally your overall rolling diameter (basically the distance from one edge of the tyre to another) can only change by something like -15 or +26mm, so it won't make much difference.
Your only drama is making sure the wheel is the correct offset. Most people choose wider rims than stock (8" is common), and there's the chance it could rub inside the wheel well if it's not the right offset. Having the wheel closer to the guard only exaggerates the problem.

thanks for that.
