Very nice mate, needs slamming now though! It's a nice contrast with the blue, I agree that you should get some xpower graphics to go on there now.

what part of the arch is it hitting? I found I had to space my front wheels out 5mm with the 18"s fitted as it rubbed on the inner arch and shock cup

no idea, not investigated it yet... I take it the plastic disks I got with the wheels are the spacers?

Maxxed_Ross 31-10-07 02:23 PM

no they are for centering them properly

Mine are rubbing on the inner part of the front wing - it's not lowered and it's OE 11-spoke alloys as well. :crazy:

that's weird. What size of tyres are fitted to it?
