New wheels :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: (again)

First tyre place couldn't get the tyres on, apparantly 265/35/19 Yokohama Advans have a sidewall too stiff to fit to these wheels :thumbdown: Second place fitted them easy & were cheaper :#1:

After that, it was onto 360 Motorsports near Pontypool to get my coilovers fitted (again :blush: )

Car is lowered by 25mm front & rear which is just about enough to remain useable & look noticeably different.

Ignore the dirty wheel, not had a chance to clean them yet :blush:

Wheels are Varrstoen ES 2.2.2 19 x 9.5 ET12 (ET2 in the front & will be ET2 in the rear once I order some more spacers)

It's difficult to photo a bright coloured car with dark wheels so the detail isn't really there in the photos, but I like to the look B)

Maybe we'll just have to meet up some time this year so I can see for myself! :)

Yeah I took loads of pics trying to show off the purple in them but failed miserably :lol: It was starting to get dark so I'll try again tomorrow after I've washed it :)

I will be at Japfest & as many other shows as possible. Hopefully I will make it down to another mod day at some point aswell :)

Quick tip, put focal point of camera right over the wheels whilst you half press, then re-frame the shot whilst still half holding the shutter button. Should show up better for you.
