Had the Leon out at the weekend with a full car load - Hopefully that should help settle the springs i fitted month ago lol.. Have only drove the car few times since last year.

Well she is happily taxed and this is how she is sitting.





New pics to follow this weekend with new bits done
* Heko wind deflectors fitted
* 20mm Rear & 15mm Front Spacers (postage issues) fingers crossed they arrive this weekend
* Wheels gloss black

Had Revo stage 2 flashed yesterday - shame i cant use it until the cat comes off on Saturday. Put it back to stock performance for now - it sucks! :(

Lots of logging and tweaking on the weekend though, should be fun :D

10J rears would be a no no in my book, even with 15mm adapters your @ E.T 40 + an extra 25mm due to it being 10J as standard are around E.T 51 but are 7.5J wide... I think

Basically your new alloys would have 21mm LESS inside clearance and would EXTEND an extra 43mm ( with an E.T of 40 if you used 15mm adapters )

So that means it's pretty useless then?lol. What width would you say was best to use?

I gave my car a quick wash today so I thought I'd post some pics up of my new alloys and painted calipers, I had the car machine polished 2 weeks ago and hopefully its going to be heading to Jakes ( with the yellow cupra on here ) to have the front and back bumpers and bonnet resprayed.....

My final E.T's are E.T35 front and E.T 30 rear, the alloys are 8 x 18" and are in the colour Black magic just like my car......Comments welcome
