I want to change the wheels

Im going to get some nice bits for inside next i think. This one has plastic door cards and gear surround, leather was an option from the factory and is much better imo. It also has really naff mats so Lisa has sorted out some nice ones along with a proper footrest, i might also paint the dash plate thing around the stereo and heater controls the same colour as the car Notice the lack of interior pics so far, thats why

banging a set of 60mm G-max springs on yes (not that they actually do them mind ) Putting some adjustable coilovers on from a reputable company then having a full geometry setup looking at camber angles, toe angles etc by specialist Elise garage/tuner type people, no From the factory the suspesion is set too soft and not enough grip at the front in mine and lots of other peoples opinions
