I currently run 10mm front with 12mm rear.....


.... if i were to buy some more then i'd go for 12mm front and 15mm rear.

IMO that'd just sit alittle sweeter  :smiley:

Right then guys it seems as though there are some different options available.  What i will do today is try some different options on the car and get some pics put up.  I have small shims that i can fit to set the look right, i will try..

10mm - Front & Rear
12mm - Front & Rear
15mm - Front & Rear

I should be able to get these pics up by dinner time as i need to get the order off today.......  I will also get a price for longer locking bolts
