LM's mate, is your car slammed?

This is up for debate, I haven't changed the suspension on it but several people have asked if mine is lowered as it looks low AND when at Brands last month compared it to another MK5 on 17s and mine was a good inch and a bit lower  :undecided: :shocked:


sounds like your suspension is f**ked kid! :laugh:

I'm going to buck the trend and go for #1 :grin:

Really stealthy and tasteful too (imho) - what colour car is it again? Black IIRC?

Nice  :cool:

19s are too big for me. Iv spoken to a few people with reps and they all seem be pretty decent. Tophs are reps and is selling but again they are 19 :(



I may be interested in them, depending on price and when he's selling  :smiley:

It would be set one for me but not in black.2 is very nice but as before not shure what they would be like after a winter ?. I was tempted by a set of replica ch but in the end found a set of edition 30 alloys (which i really wanted) & went for these.

Right, spoke to R-Tec in St.Albans and they will provide BBMS LM reps, tyres, fit and balance. They have however given me some food for though.

They want £1012.00 to fit them with Eagle F1 Asymmetrics

They are doing a deal with Kumo tyres and want £720.00 to fit them with Kumo 712s

I know nothing about Kumos, anyone know if they are any good or should I pay the extra £300 and get the F1s?

Just found this pic ! hummmmmmm SOOOOLLLDD !!!!



:EDIT: Well having done some research these Kumo 712s sound pony so looks like im sticking with the F1s.

Nice one, definatly the right choice out of the 3 and to be honest LM's aren't that common on the mk5 anyway, unllike CH's  :smug:

I'll wait to see what the 18's look like on your's before making my mind up  :evil:

Should look smart mate. I think those ch's with red lip are horrible! Cant you pick the wheels up sooner and fit yourself?
