At last....my new 18s fitted!

[snakebite15]

Hello folks. Not been on here for a while! Finally i sold my motorcross bike and went staright out to buy a set of alloys of a company called WheelBase.They are an excellent buy for £625 plus delivery, and for them to be 225/45/ from 165 is excellent. See what you think. Also got recliner seats fitted and 3-point harnesses for a laugh, gettin angel eyes fiitted tomorrow.

Every single person has commented on the spoiler, its a WRC spoiler. I got it from i think it was potn.com it cost me about £130 from what i remember. I think it looks ok myself though it does depends what angle you look at it from, at least its easy to see in a car park, does stick out a bit! lol. cheers for the comment on the wheels!

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Like I said mate personal opinion, a few people dont like dark wheels on blue cars, but I do... hence why I've got them.

Fair play to ya!

they look huge

 

[ElasticTangent]

Nice rims fella. Did they just bolt straight on?

 

[AnLyGi]

I would also like to know if they bolted straight on as im thinkin of putting 18's on my slightly lower model. Any rubbing? Much room for lowering?

 

[tris]

that looks better still liking the spoiler mate

 

[UncleFester]

Looks really good that - do you find the ride any harsher because of it?

 

[snakebite15]

Cheers guys! Yes they bolted straight on! Not a single bit of rubbing what so ever, plenty of room in there! And everybody said id loose my acceleration...its not made one bit ov difference! I think they are 2mph out! and the handleing is incredible! To be honest i really do want to lower it at least 10m more, im lowered by 35-40m at the moment (do they make 50m lowering springs??) Its slightly harder when goin over speed bumps, luckily i remember to slow right down for them! I sits really good on the road. Iv hit a dip rather quick and the wheels didnt rub one bit!

 

[UncleFester]

Lowered 35-40 already? It looks like it's higher than that but maybe that's just me?

 

[RobM]

Looking very good! It does look like it needs to be a touch lower though....

 

[snakebite15]

If i had an extra £150 i would ov been so temped to put 19s on, though 18s do suit it well

 

[snakebite15]

Yes 35-40mm on PI springs. I think the back is slightly higher than the front as well, though it looks sweet when I accelerate as it sits down nicely on the springs. If they make 60mm springs i'l deffently be the first to go get them!

 

[UncleFester]

It was the back i thought looked a little high. Can you not stick 4 fat people in the car and take a photo to see how it looks?

 

[snakebite15]

LOL ye i'l see what i can do!

 

[UncleFester]

I see farm outbuildings ... got any haybales you can bag up and stick in the boot / on the back seats with them folded down?

 

[paul26982]

just stick a cow in the boot

 

[snakebite15]

Shame...dnt have any cows... i dnt think hay bales will be heavy enuff! but right behind the car there are 5 granite mushrooms which will do the trick i recon! I'l give it ago tomorrow

 

[crazy-steff]

wheels are so sweet!! u got any other engine mods m8? do u have a photo of ur exaust? where u get it and how much was it if u could please!
