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 popped my calipers round the outside and from memory it was 52mm...
The do the same check on the actual holes in the cesaro rims, and prorace#s..

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.

also ordered 4 more plates for eyebolts, and 4 more eyebolts for the harnesses.
Not happy running those thinner ones on the floor, with no additional support
