Thanks mate. It would appear that 18.9.5 rear, 18.8.5 front, +38 offset all round is best and good fitment.

As for coilovers, I\'m looking at up to around 800GBP and would consider 2nd hand ones if in good condition :)

Try for some second hand ones. BC racing do full adjustable cool overs for ~£700 brand new but you could maybe get some better brand ones second hand.

That\'s what I was thinking... As long as they are in good condition overall, then I\'ll go second hand.

With that sorta budget I\'d say you\'d be far better to go for a new set of coileys! plenty of choice for that sorta cash... bit of a no brainer really.... you can also then choose your spring rates... BC, MeisterR... have a look on DW\'s :)

I was trying to think of another cheaper brand and fil has said it, MeisterRs defo worth a look at

I agree with blitzboy on this one, if the car has a perfectly functioning sequential system there is no reason to change it. I occasionally get to drive the misses FD and i\'m blown away at how well the sequential system works and delivers power. Unless its broke don\'t try and fix it.

Coilovers wise, these  HSD units are awesome, have them on all my cars now as they just feel great, super smooth at the lowest dampening setting and then nice and stiff for track if you wind them up.
