So the centre bore of the Racelines is too small at the moment? Did StoneyGinger have to have his Racelines bored out to get them to fit? Love those wheels

Did you have to strengthen the rear up or turret it for the coilovers??

Car looks evil. Shame the bore on the racelines is wrong as i fancied a set of them!

I tried to fit ak's racelines onto my car and they would not fit the centre, to my knowledge my wheels have not been ground down in the centre to fit.

Not happy running those thinner ones on the floor, with no additional support
