The Espelirs are 1.6, teins are 1.8, at least the S-Techs are.

I'd tend to believe it, since these pics look like settled Espelirs, and they were just installed!
nothing like large wheels and a nice lowering job on a GS!

Love the car and the wheels. I had bad experience with those wheels. Took 3 of us to mount the wheels.

i know i have been looking at everyone showing off there big brakes and i really want them as well but i keep telling my self to not put money in my car cause when the new gs comes out i m going to get one ( 90 percent sure ) but then i get bored with my car and say well its only x amount for this and soon it turns out to be $$$ oh also im still looking for a greddy or a borla exhaust

The lips on these wheels are deep and If you don't know what you are doing. You can damage them really easy.
