I don't know tbh? All i know is its too low on 14's with skinny tyres! I just wind it down on the front coilovers till it looks right and that there's enough ground clearance. Rear's on -90 springs.

Who'd lend a set of £1k wheels to someone who's previously had steels and just spent the same on a new set?

Don't know when the mag's out tbh Luke?

whats with the standard steering wheel in them pics? think the seats could do with changing as they look dated from a fron view like the first cobras that came out years ago, loved the chequered wheels but these new ones sound good?

Yeah maybe it is dated, but i've just re-done the exterior, you can't really expect me to change the interior straight away! These things cost!

But yeah, it is tempting to do the whole hidden wiring/smoothing of the bay etc, but i need to keep some practicality as its my daily driver. But i'm sure when it goes to the new owner he can sort out the "issues" people have with it

he has always said its NOT rat, its just his bonnet was inspired by the style.

your car isnt exactly 'rat' either apart form the holes worn in the floor.

Tbh, i don't get it? Just seems people are taking the piss at my expense???

Update 5/10/08

Collected my BBS's on Friday night. Mega happy with them and will be keeping these wheels for my next vehicle!

Heres the pics....

The baskets....



The dishes....



And the wheels with the dishes placed on the baskets....





Now i'm just waiting for the gold rim bolts to arrive along with the centre caps and i can then crack on with sealing and building them up. Then hopefully get some tyres stretched on
