Wheels look much better now mate, the springs will also improve the look & stance but It still wont look "lowered".

60mm springs in reality will only lower the car by 40-45mm max. It will certainly look better though.

Good question soon i hope.

Quick update



Colour coded caps ( to the best possible) and de-wipered :)
They do look a lot darker in the pics, bare in mind wheels are dirty/dusty and caps arent either.

Yeah it does, but i got these springs free a while ago, so whacked them on.

And they are either being tinted or lamin-x'd. Or could go another way, not sure yet.......

Lower and some proper tyres would look sweet.

What's the spec of those wheels?
