Here we go..

Wheels are on!! Pics first..

(start with a nice side shot as requested)







I have set the coils to where im happy with at the moment (I can still go lower if I want with no problems) but the car runs well as it is, no rubbing what so ever and I think its low without looking TOO low..??

Really pleased with the looks..

Only problem is that there is NO grip, and that needs to be sorted out as Ill get pretty tired of that quickly! The plan is to get the front and rear arches rolled and try and get a sticky 225/35/19 tyre on them and wind off a little camber to help again with traction.. Both of those things require room in the arches though, and there isn't really much to spare!!

Oh and the brakes look well through them too..

feck me they are 19's ! car looks stunning ,  love the bonnet back to white , very stealth OEM+  :evilgrin:
i take it grip issues are going from 18in semi slicks to 19in road tyres ?
any plans to weigh it again / corner weight setup with these recent changes, or have you done that ?
