A new set of shoes for my girl

Postby Gibzy » Tue Mar 29, 2011 11:13 pm

Just snapped up a set of 19" kiong deep dish alloys. All have had new tires and due to writing of his car and now stripping it, the alloys were as he put it "getting in the way"

Here are the ones I got, will be fitting by the weekend. Have to wait for a new set of slimline bolts.

I will post up more when they are fitted. All comments welcome

Car is already on -45 springs. I think I will invest in a set of coilovers soon and add some 5mm spacers... Watch this space

Thanks for the posative comments

If you do invest in coilovers I'd be interested in the springs :-)

I've just invested in a pair if 25mm spacers. Mine do need them but yours look ok.

Coilovers I think will be the icing on the cake.

I Think your right, a set of coilies would set her off. i had set on my last car, coupled with a set of 18's and 5mm spacers and had the stance to a tee

Your not far wrong there paddy, but on looking a set of coilovers is going to set me back a £££. May have to wait for a bargain to pop along

A sturdy set of Eibach springs will drop her 35mm.

With little impact on the ride.
