The front splitter isn't fairing too well

Nice stance though

Very nice. What size are they and did you have to roll the arches?

They do make them in 5x100 You just need to import them from the US.

Arch work wise, my arches are rolled all round, my liners are all cut out, my loom moved up an inch, and i split the inner arch, hammered it up an inch, and seem welded it back together, or my arch would just be sat on the tyre. And ive notched my chassis legs too.

A few more for you that James just sent me.





Thanks for the warm replies by the way. Much appreciated

Its an awesome look, but dont fancy cutting, bending, grinding and welding my car just for a set of rims.
Hats off to you mate, but for the time being i'll keep my Speedlines lol.

Any ideas on wheel weight less tyres?

Someone needs to make a flexible rubber front splitter... I'm sure there's money in it !

Car looks spot on I like the stance, a hell of a lot of work to achieve it but well worth it in the end.

Thanks so much for all the kind words guys, like i said before, i really do appreciate it.

Practicality wise, it is my everyday car, i live out in the country, and work down a single track lane. Those pictures where also taken out in The New Forest, and in some pretty hard to get in to locations. Im pretty used to driving low cars, as i come from the VW world, and most of my cars have been this low and lower. It takes a certain art to using it everyday, and i do batter my subframe on occasions, and have to 'drag' over speed bump, but that's all part of the fun to myself. As for handling - It still handles extraordinarily well, but no where near a proper track set up would have to offer, but that doesn't stop me from driving it hard in the slightest.
