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!!!!
