Here's mine. Not great. But it's all well maintained. :)

:bow: That's nice. Sometimes as nice to see a clean original example as a bling-bling version. Well kept. Wish mine was that clean.

They weren't all taken at the same time. Some are pre-spacers completely, but where taken at an angle where you can't notice. There wasn't a huge difference between having 25 effective and 20 effective. I just did it because I could! LOL There was a difference that I noticed, but I always focus on detail.

DTA took Smithys place over, so all Powertrix products can be bought through Danny.

I'd get 20mm spacers for the front and 10 or 15 at the rear.

Rears are of slight concern with those specs. Ideally for something like a 8.5" wheel at the rear, you'd be wanting something around an ET30 - ET35. My rears are 9.5" wide and I'm running ET35. Take off half an inch (equivalent to the outer edge size difference) which is about 12mm...so it might be close. Fronts are about right. I am running a +20 offset and my fronts are 8.5" wide. My advise would be to get some cheap-ass universal spacers JUST to check clearance on the rears and if you're satisfied, then get the bolt-on hubcentric ones.

... are these for the front or rear....what offset are you running at the moment and how wide are your wheels?

Maybe it hates you. :p

I'd get something a little better quality than that.

Because you can PM him on here and not have to put up FTAO threads.

As above. 265 will look awful on a 10" wheel. 285 is ideal. I run 275 on a 9.5" rear.

Subscribing helps.

Shame about the poor choice in wheels! They don't suit the car one bit! But I guess you're limited if upgrading brakes to cope with that power! Would have gotten some custom large diameter old-skool style rims made for it. Project does look very impressive though! I always fancied shoe-horning a 5.0 V8 'stang engine into one of these....I've always liked that model of Scorpio Cosworth. A friend's Dad had one when they were launched and I loved it.

Errrmmmm..... certainly doesn't tickle my ball bag I'm afraid.

Try and find someone to match the paint.

I didn't nor did Maddie. Sorry. :(

Good to see everyone again today. Couldn't have asked for better weather!!

No, I really like the original too.

Well, you've got wider rear tyres now, so bite and handling are going to be effected which is probably why you weren't aware of how far to take it. Sorry to hear. Hope you're able to fix. :(

WTF are you harping on at now?

:rofl: you really are a complete retard aren't you! It's tortoiseshell!

If your dogs are quite placid animials, then introducing them to a younger cat won't be any problems. Advise on getting a kitten as it won't have the adjusting to do that a mature cat would.

Knackered alternator shouldn't cause the battery to drain if left overnight, only when the car is being used.
