You won't get better than this

Also, I'm going to start speaking in dramatic Hollywood stylee now, I think

It doesn't take much for that stuff to react with the wrong kind, and Minis are particularly sensitive (we have one) so it's not something I'd be mucking around with.

Probably get them in the chav section at Halfrauds easy enough, I'd have thought.

Better than looking silly...

Holy crap, that's amazing!

Flush ASAP, that is a disaster waiting to happen! Seriously, don't drive the car if you possibly can, and get that out of there.

If you're ordering new wheels, can't you order ones that fit? As in, with a more appropriate offset?

Either you're psychic, or he's already mentioned it and I blindly looked past it

Lol genuine win!

But then you need camber correction arms, else you'll be running on just a tiny part of the tyre and chew through them really quickly. I thought you had the correction arms on yours matey? No, only mild drop in Tein springs, fitted by Abbey MS and alignment corrected to within factory parameters Ah, okay. I'm guessing your wheels fit a little better though MCook, what offset are they?

WOT NO MPSS

Oh god they're even worse

Like I said, I do like the style and the fronts are fine, it's the rears that look silly. As Payco said, you really needed to do the body first I think. I'm no expert, but can you even roll the arches that much to cope with those? Genuine question, it's not something I get into.

That looks daft mate, sorry. You don't need rolled arches, you need wheels that fit. I mean, they're a nice style and all (and I normally don't like aftermarket wheels), but they look like Lego toy wheels like that.

I've never had it done to me, but then I'm not that stupid as to walk by a bloody great puddle in the road when there's cars coming! I would hope that if I ever am so dense, and I do get a soaking, I'm able to laugh it off with the same intensity that I'm sure the driver of the car will be. I may or may not have done it a couple of times, and the reactions of the people has been absolutely priceless: The classic open-mouthed cape-wearing pose

GLOL :lol:

Fixed penalty? It's worse than that, you can be done for careless driving, so that's properly endorsable. Splashing pedestrians is morally and legally wrong. It's also bloody hysterical.

Any reason you're not just going to wait until you've got the wheels sorted first before putting these on? Also, surely you don't have the spacers already? Mate, I appreciate you're excited about these, but just have a little patience and you'll be so much better off

It's your router again Stevo

Me too.

That mock-up by some random is from 2013!!!

That's not right Col: 10w40 is exactly the same viscosity as 5w40 when warm, it's just thicker from cold.

Sadly not, I think if I do go it'll have to be later in the year. House purchase is stopping all fun at this point.
