New wheels for the ride
Hello everyone
Done a few bits and pieces to the ride this month, the wallet got absolutely spanked to say the least!
-The car had a service
- Map got tweaked on the rolling road
-New brake discs and pads at the front
- New wheels
- Arches rolled to fit the wheels
- Braided hoses
I will let the pics do the talking.....
Heres how it looked before...
Heres how its looking now....
Opinions welcome, I'm thinking of ditching the mudflaps but not 100% sure yet. I'm much happier with the look of the car exterior wise, think i'm going to add a tow hook to the rear and a bit of carbon, then get it detailed.
I would like to thank Neil and Matt at Slowboy racing for the various bits and pieces they have done recently, Duncan (Race Dynamix) for his mapping skills and also arch-enemy for the arch rolling.
Thanks
Matthew

No mate didnt go for 18x10- went for 18x9.5's
They are indeed rota grid drifts 18x9.5's, a 5mm spacer was needed on the front to clear the brembos- so I stuck a 5mm spacer on the rear too for the hell of it lol. The arch rolling was £30 a corner and I needed all four corners doing, probably could of got away with not having the front done but it was sitting pretty low and they would of rubbed. I didnt buy these new, got a good deal second hand but new your looking at about £1100 with a fairly good set of tyres. The tyres on these are 225 40 18.
I hope that helps.
They are indeed 5x100's mate.
