        As long as there's a dirty rusty old barrel on the roof!!

        But honestly, I don't mind them if they can pull of the Euro look.

          I don't mind them, but I prefer the look without them.

          Not to mention the increase in fuel consumption due to increased drag, and the wind noise around them at speed...
          Nothing to see here...

            you gotta be low to pull off the look otherwise it'll look like a small 4WD

              Yeh they look good but umm the wind noise and increased fuel consumption as manaz says isnt worth it. Just gets annoying after a while.

                      Can look great, depends on what look your after.

                      Euro spec, low, wide and racks IMO is the shiz!

                            lol. they're barely boras. in fact the first one's a bolf. i think darth vadar could do well if it didn't have all that car bra crap all of over it.

                            hmm... it does have koenig buckets though..

                            i reckon the super low slung euro tourers are best left to 20v quattro a4s and golf wagons (which we didn't get here ) bora just needs 10 inch rears
