picked up a new pair of rims for the car impul pro mesh's
14x7 with 5" of dish
Ģ120
car is still in the garage, seems there were a few other issues other than timing, a partially blocked fuel system, ignition timing, and a few other niggle bits and pieces, so hopefully back soon

fitted some nice new alloys to back of car today, but i had to take them back off as they were rubbing the arches, and i can fold bash or cut bits off as they are fibre glass.
so that means smaller tires, which is a pain in the ass
they looked ok and i thought i was going to get away with it but as soon as i was on the street they were rubbing

arches are fibreglass so i cant do anything with them, wither stretch or bigger arches again haha
so going with the stretch option it is cheaper lol :

Much better mirrors
You need a bumper lip mate, with those skirts and wing it would be perfect.

iv been looking at these wheels for a while now, and i think that some one to the face of the SSR mesh wheels and put them on some barrels.
the pattern on the center just looks too much like them.
oh take a look at DJexor's avatar and compare.
