Ha, yeah i spose matey...

Purchased some 175/50s and now i think i need more stretch after all that :roll: ha!

But i have purchased spacers aswell, 25mm rear and 20mm front like the ones that bolt to the hub and thenyou bolt to the spacer ones but couldnt take a dent pic as the height was off and didnt have enough time or my c spanner annoyingly to get it sitting writ so off they come until i have some time but looks good with the alu's il get pics asap.

Service tomorow and transmition fluid change, After that i am off to Carisma in colchester as im in there with jamie shaw through my work so fingers crossed, full re-trim and instal here we come as off saturday after this..............

Good times for me, bad times for my loan :lol:

Pics to follow............

Update done.

Cheers guys, there still 175/50/15s but the pics do make em look bigger but trust me there fine n tuck nicely under the arch.......

Bit of tyre shine works a treat but the lines do make the tyres look big for some reason....................

But there has been alot of work ur right dude lol, alot off pain aswell......

Looks Great Mate, the spacers make a huge difference to be fair.

How much did they set you back and where did you get them from?

Black roof, Pillars and Mirrors look dead smart too :D

I like this alot but i have to say you need to get 165/50's that would stop the scrubing and save you money on getting your archs rolled :) !!

It's because their 175/50/15's, I reckon next time you go for the 165/45's for more stretch and a slim line tyre wall.

You had it re-mapped yet buddy?
