Sorry definately keeping them either way as i like them, will let you know if i ever do decide to sell. Got them tinted from someone on ebay, so you can get your lights done professionally from there mate

do u know the name of the person who did ur lights?

[quote="h4r1s]Btw my Castellets are 15s 1set of 25 supposedly any ideas on tyre profiles? 195/50/15 is on there atm, i want a bit of a strech and 45 profile ideally.

Next will be a nice flush small twin exhaust, was thinking of something like bmw 3 series tailpipes and i still need to get the wheels ready for the spring

Thanks, Haris[/quote]

Seen, think mine will fail on height issue, the petrol tank scrapes on bumps with the danger or busting and peeing all the fuel on the ground or either a spark setting the car on fire when it does.

Lucky 15's, usually their 14s. 185/45s should be good enough and liking the exhausts plan too, keep us posted

There u go dude hope that helps, i didn't trust him, so i told him that i would send the lights to him, and when i get them back i will pay him.

cars really looking good!! get 45s around those alloys asap tho!!!!

looking really good there Haris! bra looks good and the wheels will look awesome with the correct profile on there! good work!

Thanks again for all the positive comments,

Done some research into tyre sizes and what is available, i can either get 165/50/15's bridgestones or 185/45/15's nankangs. Anyone have any experience with any of these tyres and brands?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

yep, i use 165/50/15's mate, briliant tyre, strong side wall aswell, goood in the wet aswell, nankigs, are a cheaper version of the bridgestone i think

Btw the tires on there now are 195/50/15 and they are a bit bigger than they should be in width. And the castellets are only 6J.

Thanks, have you got any pics of them on your wheels? both tires are quite cheap about £35-40 per tyre. Would streching tyres make them a bit of a lower profile? Ideally i want tyre+wheel to end up to the same size i have on there now, so i can stay the same height as it looks so mean

Anyone else got anyomre advice...

Thanks

looks awesome mate. love the smoothing.

dont go for anything lower then 50 profile or you will be askin for trouble,
here you are mate:

How come?(cheers for the pic btw) What width are those wheels? if they are wider than 6J then mine won't look like that I'm so confused at the moment, I can't decide which to go for, as with the 50 profile, i've got on there now i get scrubbing continuosly, driving like 5mph. But i really like the stretched look, but i also need them to be a lower profile as i really don't want to raise the car up any higher

damn it i can't decide i need some serious help deciding

ahh, you say you have 6j rims? there 7j mate, you wont get much stretch on a 6j rim, but you can go low profile, go for 40 or 45
