ScoobyK

dhorwich

Dan

ice man

iTrader: (1)

Nice wheels but I prefer the old ones

dhorwich

old ones were boring..! well they weighed more than my 19's....

One radius r3 with 215/45/17 tyres weighed 21.6kg and one of my 19" rimstock diablos weighed 18.2kg

Dan

dhorwich

That should have read "one of my 19" rimstock diablos with pirelli p7000 215/35/19 tyres weighed 18.2kg"

Your'e old wheels are a better quality wheel and look better
Sorry but thats my opinion

Great looking Car

Did you get your spoiler from Chris ?

dhorwich

yes got it from chris..!!

Dan

hedgey

Quality ok and did it cost alot to spray it or did he spray it for you?

Last question How much?

Dougster

Got the wheels you had although 18s. If you drop your car using H&Rs it will buff the rear arches running 19' Diablos.

You need Eibachs mate!!

dhorwich

It cost me £195 for the spoiler and about £130 to get it sprayed which was a bit steep...

Dan

dhorwich

dougster....

looks nice with 18's.... im not to fussed about going really low.... but your right i need some eibachs.... or i could get the arches rolled...

Dan

Dougster

That pic I have the H&Rs plus MRT solid drop-links fitted.

Eibachs do bring it down and improve hadling without being too drastic.

dhorwich

Is tyre wear even on them with it lowered... because the lad who had them on his car before i bought them had eibachs on and had the suspension geometry reset at TSL but the tyres that were on the back have worn on the inside edge....

Dan

Dougster

Have been running Falkens which have worn evenly. Getting Prodrive settings done on Thursday which I think are a little bit harder on the tyres.

dhorwich

Hi,

Got some better pics of my wheels done tonight.... well i like them anyway.... and the quaility seems ok to me.... and them being lighter is a bonus..!!




Dan..

your car looks a lot lower than mine as it is and i have got eibachs fitted,you just need to sort that grille!!..Jon:

The Man From Rangoon!

i can e-mail pics of a series 1 with eibachs fitted,if you're interested.....might save you a few squid....

Dougster

On looking at the recent pictures it is clear you will experience problems with anything lower than eibachs.

Not just saying that 'cause I've got a set for sale, but Scoty has 19s, H&Rs and the rear arches rolled and he is still getting rubbing!

His car is quite similar to yours, check out some of his pics. in the Scottish forum.

dhorwich

Hi,

I had a word with scoty and he mentioned that they rub.....

I thought my car seemed low..... compared to other scoobs.... it feels very stiff to.... but it might be my imagination.... plus ive never been in another scoob so dont know...

Dougster if you have them on the 28th of june i will be interested...

Dan

dhorwich

the man from ragoon,

Some pics would be great..!!! and yes the grill must go.... think i need a front splitter first though..!! role on pay day..!

Dan

Dougster

Dan,

As I've said before, you give me the nod and I'll keep them for you.

Graham Beal

Glad you are happy with them mate, they look sweet

dhorwich

graham,

Well happy handling is fine to toy can hardly tell the difference....
