    The wheels look great but unfortunately in the UK the VX wouldn't (or rather shouldn't) pass the yearly MOT (road worthness test) as the tyre protrudes outside the wheel arch (there is an increased likelihood of kicking up stones into the vehicle behind. But as I said "looks great"

    Technically, it's illegal here too but VERY rarely enforced. I have never heard of a case. And considering I protrude a solid 1" all around, I am glad. Sure makes for really awesome rooster tails flying down the highway in the rain.

    Nice JDM.... but 15"s? Makes the tires a bit too balloony for my taste. Pretty solid if you are gonna get rough and dirty though.
