Hahah you know me never far away from another well fitted impreza.

Xmas was great thanks. It's good to see the stretched catching on. I'm in the process of running a blog for it all. Can't be arsed with a forum can get to bitchy, potentially a few haters can get on and not really needed.

With the blog an arranged meet can be decided etc and post a date up

Yeh i do have the Snetterton shot do you want me to post it up or email?

Be warned if you go to low on the 40's it'll rub like hell so a 35 might be worth a try next time
thanks iv had the arches rolled and pulled to accomidate i did think about 35 profile but i looked on naisoc researched it on there and came up with 40s being the better all round also the prada spec 2 tyres which are fitted have a nice side wall on them so they look like a 35 profile its defo going lower with camber but just waiting for a break in the weather

Yeh i had mine rolled and a slight pull and running around -2.5 camber and still get the odd rub on the 40.

If i get the chance to swap to 35 i will. Mine is still going lower once the snow clear's and awaiting to get some chassis work done to prevent rubbing in the wrong places. No one said it would be easy lol

Believe me there's a lot of ****e on NASIOC hence why i've stayed off there a long time. Although some nice cars and great build threads

The tow eye was imported form the US.

There's some cheap copies going ebay if you look. Here's a better pic of it


P.S if you have any questions etc pm me

The main reason i started a blog is because i had no one who i could ask questions to that was over here. The US forums helped in that respect and i thought instead of always looking at posts over there why not start something over here.

It has been done to death in the VAG scene but i have found it hard getting the mechanical side of things done with people that know what they are doing.

Although now i can recommened the right people for the job

Some sweet looking wheels here, can't afford to get wider ones, but might just splash out on some decent spacers until I've replenished the savings account

Space them out, Slight tyre stretch and ride height adjustment and you'll be set.

Tyre stretch will have to wait until I wear the current ones out, and the 50mm drop will suffice until I upgrade to coilovers, but the 8x18 GTRs should do the trick nicely for now
