Josh42 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Ive had the car since August last year, When I bought the car it had the standard 16s http://img.tapatalk.com/52848b99-3ba7-cca4.jpg I then decided to go for an OEM + look so bought myself a set of UK 17s http://img.tapatalk.com/52848b99-3ada-122b.jpg I've just got myself a set of Rota Torque Drifts, 9.5J all round And the car sits like this:) http://img.tapatalk.com/528488d8-3b06-94b5.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/528488d8-3b13-d920.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/528488d8-3b2d-b7a9.jpg What do people think?

pbryant_knight Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Those wheels would look great in silver. In black they seem to blend into the arches and you can't really see them or the full definition of the wheel. Still a huge improvement on the OEM wheels though. Nice job Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 They're anthracite, in the sun they contrast beautifully:) Cheers chaps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) Nice car, but be careful with the stock jack not to damage the sill returns, so many cars are wrecked by crushed chassis members and sill returns by bad jack usage. Invest in a low entry height long reach trolley jack from the likes of Machine Mart and jack under the diff casing or front X member (the cast alloy one). Nothing wrong with 16 inch rims, they are still the nicest set up on bad roads or in the wet Edited June 19, 2012 by Chris Wilson (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Like those wheels - car needs lowering a smidge though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 Cheers Chris, I used a low level 3 tonne blue point trolley jack, the standard jack was merely to provide an extra support as I didn't have access to my axle stands:( I found the 16s decent in the wet but just looked far too small on the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
