federals on the ultralites joely. cars a mess id rather not take any pics right now lol. ahhh maybe il take some during the week.

wow yeah that front tyre is gunna be seriously thin and quite stretched should have gone for 40 profile as jaffa said, even the federals i have on the front are stretched and they are seriously chunky in ways of side wall thickness and width, they do come out really big.

only one way to find out... sorry what was the spec on the front?

JFYI mine are 9.5j all round et18 {2mm spacer) front and et20 rear, 235/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear BUT i have federal tyres on and trust me when i say this, they come out VERY BIG compared to normal tyres, i would say the 255 is more like a 275, as where the falken 255 was stretched the fedral is completely flush with the wheel. I had to flare the rear arches and ended up respraying the rear 1/4's due to cracked paint, whoops. OH hi btw havent been here for a while.

thanks everyone, lol havent been online for a while.

These are really only for cosmetics. Might make a slight difference though. I have this one.

Beejezus.... its not that bad: http://www.metals4u.co.uk/detail.asp?cat_id=21&prd_id=2003

Hmmmm, il bare that in mind. Anyone know what it costs made up from factory?

I would go with ally if you can afford it, anyone know the prices of ally?, the perspex cracks really easily but it has strength in surface area and one of the best advantages is its transparent so you can slap it under the car and see exactly where to drill for mounting positions and where to cut, then evantually spray it black. I could remove it and use it as a template for ally or CF

home made jobby.

You dont need all these silly brackets just be happy they are gone and saving weight :)

They were too expenisve, halfords wanted £5 for 4 ggrrrrrrrr

It had cracked underneath near the exhaust, i was jacking up the rear and forgot to put something under the wheels to stop them rolling oops. But its ok, I got to work and made a few changes. Covered more of the lower of the fender with perspex and brought the diffuser in deeper. Might make a difference... might not..... the high pressure air should escape easier out the rear than before. These aftermarket bumpers kinda act like parachutes but a few changes and all is transformed :) before: after:

So i can go speeding here then?

Yeah i felt great when i left :) ive edited the post read it again. Added a few details.

Well i was layed off work last week :( :( :( poor me..... I was being payed cash in hand and promised a contract which never came, i kept on at them.... till eventually i said id have to seek legal advice, a week later my boss said, "well we are not giving you a contract and seen as you dont want to be payed cash anymore we will make 2mow your last day......... FOOK that, I wiped their hard drives and deleted all the system parameters in microsoft access, everyone left work early that day...... I left the same day and never came back. (yes i had admin rights on my comp, silly buggers) was a very amature setup there. During some Registration days the company would take in £250,000 CASH..... and the owner would put it in a poxy bag and walk to the bank WTF!! BTW this isnt a restuarant just incase you were wondering and they can get into big trouble due to the fact loads of important documents were deleted and they never made a backup. silly silly silly. Lets just say they are still fooked, how do i know this? well im close to alot of the workers there and without raising suspision ive asked them how the system is at work, the reply: "its still fooked, the N drive has a virus" hahahahhahahaha serves them right. Try mess with me beyotch......................... They will never try to prosecute me they dont have a leg to stand on, they are paying many workers ilegally and some foreign ooo dear. Can you believe they have the annual queens award for enterprise 2 years running.... I should write to the queen and let her know what they are up to.... sorry im guessing this is a bit over the top compared to what you guys have writen lol.

What was done to it, do you know?
