  1. He didn't specify! I'm taking advantage!!!
  2. I saw a guy the other week whilst I was walking the dog washing his 2012 car (VW I think ) in the midday sun, ....then I spotted the sponge he was using on the bodywork that he'd just left on his driveway. Was thinking I should probably say something but then noticed he had picked up his hose with wheel brush cleaning attachment and proceeded to use it on the roof. There is know way I was even going to start telling him what he was doing wrong as I just didn't have all day. Best left quiet To some people, a car is just a car.
  3. Like a £10 I think
  4. Why don't you get wheels with the right size so you don't need spacers? Also, you will need the Offset of the wheel. As you may go and get a 8.5J Wheel but if the offset is different to the Rays, it's going to sit different all together.
  5. Are we serial? After all the ball ache to get those wheels on, we're going to talk about the girl
  6. The finished result - Awaiting Neil to upload his shots with a decent camera, but here's my iphone and some stranger from a local meet I think the guy doing the photo's was called Dan
  7. So, we finally managed to get the wheels on with a lot of brute force from Bob!! Can't thank this man enough for helping me get these on! We basically rolled and flared the arches, we managed to get just over an inch extra on each side. Here's how it went... 20mm Spacer wasn't enough for the Rolling tool to clear the brembo.... Flare! Turns out with 20mm spaces on (I always though we could get away with 15/16mm, but turns out the old wheel hub threads were sticking to far out of the spacer, so the wheel wasn't sitting flush with the spacer, it was essentially a 24mm spacer. So we burnt those off! Brembo distance -
  8. So, been quite a while since an update, So I'll try and keep it brief and let the pictures do the talking. Picked up a GTSpec strut bar off Keyser, as a Impulse buy! Swapped my bonnet for Busters old one, due to rust bubbles coming through on my old one.
  9. FINE! 1. Aliveboy 2. coldel 3. Crustycrab 4. Mouthwash (if the car is working) 5. Arran 6. SteveoD subject to other terms and conditions 7. Jabbah 8. Steve 350z 9. Grundy225
  10. OP Can you ask to see what wheels look like on a sunset zed or what real bronze looks like? Just so I can pic whore!
  11. If I hadn't of just fitted my wheels I would of bought this off you to run some tests on As Bradders says, you are letting this go at a steal, full set is £700+
  12. Alex has exactly the same problem lol I no longer feel abnormal Hopefully they have fat head size helmets for rent they do ill bring two helmets but if I have a passenger and we're on the same time it will be In use #teamtarmac
  13. Had a little scout around, not sure if they've been discontinued - Most places I've looked can only supply Blue/Red/Black/Gunmetal.
  14. Aye not 100% finished, but happy with the result so far. RBK won't be ready/happening til next year. And aye, as long as the tread tucks under the arch, legal

  19. Ooo good shout, I was going to just opt for Black because It'd be hard to find the closest colour, but that's spot on! - Cheers.
  20. Yeah Either gold or Black - Was meant to buy some when my wheels arrived....then ran into THE complication.
