Yes mr bunny has finally got 4 matching alloys on his car at last and it looks mint! :hyper: :nana2: lol

 

Better pics to come tomorrow when i give him a clean but these show just how perfectly the wheels sit on the front and the back without lowering.

 

Went to visit Driftworks in Brum today and picked up a set of these little beauties...

 

25mm magnesium/aluminium spacers for 97 quid

 

 

I used the 5mm spacers i got for the front wheels to push the backs out a little and here's the result (bear in mind these are all coming off for me to paint the suspension this week and the calipers ready for sunday's meet)

 

 

 

 

rear arches flat and boring anyway, but at least the wheels fill 'em unlike the huge gap you get with the front arches. I can see a wide arse kit next on the list now then lol

 

don't tempt me lol :D

Now they are looking good my friend

 

It looks lower when its clean :confused:

 

lol, i haven't cleaned it yet i just took em in the light :D been fitting the rear brake pads today, fitting smithy's fuel line kit and refitting shrimpy's grounding kit as the earth wire had popped out

I agree. It looks good Nick...

 

Cheers matey, i do have to say in the flesh it looks about 10 times better. You'll see when i come to london soon for a meet :D

Yeah 25mm is the smallest that cover the current studs.

 

Wouldn't mind kicking the fronts on mine out a touch. Will fit new camber adjustment and tension rods first and see how it goes.

....anyway, in my haste to strangle an answer out of you, I didn't say 'looks great'! :)

 

I just love your splitties and want to see you get your motivation back with them.

 

Just need to find some purple brake caliper paint.... :confused:

 

Here you go Nick.

Fleabay strikes again.

 

Lookin good buddy. Have to get some brembo callipers and disks now.

 

Hope to see you soon when we have another meet. I'll get onto Wozzer and see what we can sort out.

The colour looks good but the ad is funny as

 

Turn your car into a phat machine

When they're done i'll pop a poll up to see what people think side by side like you did with yours.

 

The advantages are:

 

SPEEDLINES

 

+ 275 backs and 235 fronts

+ Look stunning and totally unique

- Going to be a bugger to clean as a day to day car

- Expensive tyres

- Still not finished

 

INOVIT SPINS

 

+ More contrasting and unique design

+ Help to achieve the black and purple stealth look

+ More open and look larger allowing better viewing of the larger brake upgrades i'm planning

+ Already balanced and only 6 months old

- Only 225 all round

- Need a refurb on some of the metal faces as well

Here you go Nick.

Cheers matey, to be honest i'm tempted ot just scrub them down and mix some red and blue caliper paint together until i get the right shade of purple for the car rather than trying to guess it through an advert.

 

Or even just paint them black!

If you want a good colour match then mixing yourself is the way to go.

 

Looking at the photos though I think black would be good. Will match in with the wheels really well I think.
