Wheels are a wheel pain...

Thanks Andy... obviously it will be sounding even better in the not too distant future thanks to our recent business! I have also placed an order for my new triples so there is no reason not to have it all fitted in the next month or so!

P.S Have you ever considered going into the parcel wrapping business, took me an age to get the system unwrapped from your very thorough packaging activities....:) but it arrived in good order, so many thanks for your diligence.

Hi Will,

Please see picture but as you can see its on standard arches and as yet only lowered 1", it has new coilovers and I am planning on getting handy with the c-spanners this weekend.

That fitment is spot on :thumbs:...very mild stretch, you got the dish, the wheel width and tyre profile all working in tandem. And the ability to go lower by another 1"...pure win;)

Hi Jon,

:lol:Think your mixing me up with Andy Smith, did you buy his exhaust system that was on classifieds a few weeks back for 20 minutes ?? That was a good purchase, I was very tempted...!
 
Hi Andy,

What a numbnuts i am! Apologies for my confusion, really should concentrate more.

I did buy Andy's exhaust, what a nice guy, he couldn't have been any more helpful if he tried.

I have to agree that is bang on to my eyes too. Do want. Is that what Rota call the Matt Bronze finish, or just black?

That's a really nice set of wheels. I suspect they will not fit under stock arches so I assume you will be using some wider bolt on flares? Nice stretch as well:thumbs:

Im not sure if it helps entirely regarding the tyre stretch issues, but the attached images show ET0 15x8" Rota RKR's with 205/50 Yoko's Neova's.

I'm SO glad you posted on here. I tried commenting on your photo in the gallery a couple of days ago with no luck - just wanted to ask what fitment those wheels were!!

your car looks awesome. Are you lowering it any more? if so, could we have some photos? :thumbs:

Many thanks,
Guy
 
Hello Guy,

To answer your question yes... Please see these pictures taken this morning after i adjusted the coilovers a further -35mm.

Jon.
