Think it'd be 225 (no such size as 220).

That is MASSIVE though on a 480

mat i must correct you there is such a size as 220. They come on BMW's. They also come on old jags.

Must be a metric size then?

Still, I'm sure that's not the size VBB is using

this is true. I would say he is running 205/45/16's as he has no scrubbage

Not a criticism in any way, as Chris has said this in the past, but when you get bigger rims you need to lower the suspension to keep the same proportions and make it look right!
put the celeb wheels back on, then lower it 35 or 40mm and then start playing about with wheels

as for the white 480's argument, they have really grown on me since i got mine! the whiteness hides some of the subtle lines that are more visible on the other colours buth there is a nice contrast between the dark windows/surrounds, black bonnet seals and the black pinstripe on the side.
i think it works and its a far more striking "look at me" colour than flame red. Roo's kinda spoiled for choice though as he has one of each now

205 should not scrub if the tracking is correct

I never liked white on the 480 but since I have known the Catgroom and his white 480 (which I can wheel spin in 1st/2nd/3rd

) it's grown on me.

205/45 is that what I'm supposed to be looking for?

Looking rather good Adam

maybe fintec springs -25/-30? Been thinking of them myself, but havenÂ´t made up my mind yet.

btw. I think there is something nice with white 480Â´s. In Helsinki I sometimes see a white turbo and a white es with black bumpers, nice me says

WhatÂ´s this negative talk about them

ah, phew... though 220 sounded a bit high.

They look much lower profile than that... hmmm.... me like... I think the turbo might end up with something similar...
