Would look awsome on your car! and you have the power to back it up
Would recomend you get steel front wings. Mine were a pain in the a#% to fit and aline properly.

I know gundersen motorsport sold crommodora's in diffrent sizes and patterns etc etc but I really dont have any clue what the 19 ¨ centerlock version was used for. but there was one guy here in norway who had those wheels on his ex DTM E30 so you might be on to something
