P11jon: Is it you who works as a valeter? If not you might still be able to give me some pointers. I am looking for a really good wax. Been using that Mer stuff for a year now. Does look good and gives a nice wax but whats better? I dont mind paying the extra few pennies for good stuff. Also is it worth buying one of those wax machines out halfords or wotever? or is hand better? Just want to get the best possible look.

easy boys! the white wheels were stuborn coming off. had to use my rubber malet to get f**kers off. got backs on now and just put drivers side front on but have just noticed i have coilovers on front bonus. but my problem is these wheels seem to be almosts touching the coilover itself like to the point where when the car is jacked up and u put ur finger between there might be less than a mm to touching it dnt know wether this improves when the cars sat down cuz i cant see on my drive.arrrrggghhhh .is this potentially a disaster???????? help!!!!
-
6mm spacers are needed, always happens with coilies and big wheels
-
ahhh sh!t. wat shud i do run the 18's on the front for now while i get spacers?? 6mm u say ye?? do i need longer bolts etc????
-
see if anyones selling a set of spacers with the longer bolts, get a full set for all 4 or itll look weird with wide fronts and tucked rears.
put your old wheels on till your sorted
-
+1 on above nee to run Spacers as wheel will got the coilover and damage the wheel
-
5mm spacers, no need for longer bolts
-
can i not just run the rears as they are till i get spacers? i put the 18's back on front of course.it been a ball ache today i got the world worst jack i really cant be doing with taking the back wheels of again.lol. i seen cars run 19's and 18's on front it ent dodgy is it just for few days???
-
yer leave the back wheels on they will be fine..
-
anyways, pics....
-
I have a set of 5mm spacers im not using if your interested?
-
chris i posted in other thread plz read thanx. also i dnt wanna post pics of it till all four wheels are on and it clean cuz it looks sweet now but obviously silly with the other wheels still on front but when its sorted and cleaned u lot will be pleasantly suprised i think. they really suit the car and look good against the red. unlike the white wheels .lol.
