Wheels are on :D **Shes ad a bath**
« on: 27 April 2008, 10:01 »
Hey all,

the tyres turned up last night, so today i got them fitted and threw them on the car..

the 7.5s on the front caused a bit of bother with the 288mm discs n pads, ive had to run 5mm spacers and take a small amount off the bottom of the pads because they were fouling the wheels...

well here are the pics, i really need a decent backbox now though...









and i fitted my steering wheel

The front are sitting a lot better now ive wound it down a touch, the rears need to be raised a touch though..

nah i always say to people dont do it, when they talk about de-arching, i just think they look better and more beefy with the arches on.

I need to get some back to black or something on mine soon when the weather gets better.

Looks awesome with those rims on mate, you have any trouble fitting the rears? Also is it lowered at all looks kinda curb friendly at the front anyway. Cage in the back looks smart too!
