love these wheels, where did ya get em from??

when you planning on lowering it then??

[ENVYD]

i got them a day ago mate!
 
went to leeds to swap them for my work alloys!
 
as for lowering it mate, i am not to sure just yet need the money first lol! i have some bilsteins shocks that sit at a nice hight with a sort of soft ride, but i think i want coilovers!

Nice wheels matey, she looks quite low already! mine is 5 inches to the bottom of the lip at the front, just right for clearing speed humps! have you got a pic of the front bumper please, i\'m interested to see what those vent holes are like, and wether they go though the Impact plate (or whatever it \'s called)
cheers Bob

[ENVYD]

yeah the front will not be going much lower, its just the back thats high!
 
as for them holes, they where in the bumper when i got the car and they are in front of the bumper support/impact plate thing so there is no real point in them! can still get a pick if you wish!

Thanks mate, no need for a pic then, but could you tell me how wide the gap is roughly, 10 mill-ish? would you say, i thought there was no gap at all, and would like to know for a bit extra cool air flow, cheers Bob

[ENVYD]

do you mean from the bumper to the support bar mate?

[ro284]

yes please, just an idea, cheers

[ENVYD]

just went out side to have a look mate! there is no room for air flow (not to the eyes anyways)
 
pick just in case:
 
they should be black but the washer tuck the paint off.

Many thanks for your trouble ENVYD cheers

[ENVYD]

no probs mate!

Loving those wheels, dude. Gotta be dark wheels on a red car, I thinks. Not that I\'m biased lol, just cos that\'s what I\'ve got. Look a bit fat, or maybe even phat, for too much drop there. It\'d be infuriating for you to get the car looking so good and then do that crimping the top of the front arch bit when the wheels are turned!

How many times have you scraped your number plate off, btw!? :eek:You obviously haven\'t got killer road bumps up the Toon like we have down south, then :Giggle!

[ENVYD]

yeah i know mate they are very wide spesh with a ET12 offset! but they do not rub so thats a good thing. also i will be gettin wide wings/overfenders when i get my kit sorted!
 
dont think the car will be staying red tho

[Nik da Greek]

Hhhmm, what could possibly be a better colour than Vintage Red ......
