Hi guys. I've just bought my 3sdm 0.05 staggered alloys 8.5 front 9.5 rear. I've got 225/40 18 all round but been told there to big for when I want to lower the car.
Any suggestions??
Seen I few people doing 215/35 or front and 225/35 for rears...
Any help would be great.
Thanks Guy

I've seen this set up on an Ed30 and for those old enough to remember Hot Wheels will now what I mean

To bag win with the 0.05 get the inner bits colour coded to the car
