Nice one mate. I sold my standard springs and shocks and replaced them with full PI 50mm

Where is the best place to get 90 springs in the UK and how much?

Cheers mate

Update!!!!!

Got wheels back from being powdercoated, have to say they look amazing

Cant wait to put them on just need tyres now.











These are what they would have looked like if the centre caps fitted but they dont ffs!!



This is why... the middle of centre plate is concave and the badges are flat







And also for some reason the actual centre caps wont screw in fully as i think when they were done some of the stuff that is used has gone inside the threaded bit and now its stoping it from screwing in

I think they look good without centre caps anyway ohh welll weel have to see what happens

Let me know what you think
