I have the JBW 13 x 7 polished with black on my rs2000. The car is lowered and can only fit my little finger between tyre and guards on the rear and my guards have been rolled. My tyres are 205/60r13

Hope this helps.

Yeah no dramas once the car has the wheels back on I will take some. There are a few in the show room under lachies RS. They are not close up but it will give you a idea of what they look like. It changed the whole look of the car by filling the guards up. Can't complain about the quality only thing is that the chrome on the wheel nuts is starting to peel and painted the center caps black and some RS stickers.

federal make 205/60/13 in a 595 which is a sport tyre, but you would be better off putting a 185/60/13 on, hankook make these in a sport tyre aswell, which are better on road than the federal. i have 205/60/13 yokohama 352's on my mk2 currently and had to roll the guards for them to fit, but the footprint is too wide and thus creates more understeer than you would expect

Are they still making the Hankook 13's?
I see that Federal also make a 185/60/13 in their 595 Ultra High Performance range.

yes the hankook 13's are a ventus, which are excellent sport and road tyres. im looking at putting them on my current minilites and getting another set to put 595 RSR's on for hillclimbs.
