leon on 18's

[jimbob99]

im currently running 20mm spacers all round the fronts are great but the back ones dont seem to protrude as far as i wanted, SO i was going to buy a pair of 25mm spacers for the rear. HOWEVER if i were to order 2x et35 for the front and 2x et30 for the rear would i be right in thinking that would give me the 5mm "push" i was looking for anyway???

[jimbob99]

[leoncupratdi150]

[jimbob99]

ok een intouch with them just now and im getting free delivery and a free pair of 5mm shims for the rear. so all being well if i can get my car out of the 3ft snow drift and get to the bank tomorrow they should be with me in a couple of days. woo hoooo

 

[leoncupratdi150]

if you dont mind me askin how much are they costing all in with tyres mate?

 

[jimbob99]

£645, ic deliv and the 5mm shims, and tyres fitted and balnced, only problem is im not seeing any good reports about fullrun tyres their average at best and appently just dangerous in the wet!
not good in a FWD putting out 270bhp

 

[paul26982]

yeah me too. and thanks for the push in the right direction paul, i was kinda torn between mesh and LM but it was very apparent when i seen these i had to have some.
cant afoord any decent rubber yet and its pointless putting my tyres on as there autogrips and just as bad as fullruns, plus im looking for the stretched look which the 215 /35 fullruns will give, so i'll just have to go with the package for now and kick fcuk out of em til i afford something decent
i dont have photochop but i do have too much spare time and microsoft paint lol and i managed to come up wi this.
please dont take the piss too much i was very bored as im snowed in

 

[therench]

looking good m8

 

[jimbob99]

should look ok in the flesh.

 

[paul26982]

going to look class mate, consider getting them polished honestly if you search makes the wheels look twice as good, just the face of the spokes even, this is going to llok class mate, and no probs always haapy to help

 

[jimbob99]

yeah they do look good polished, i can do the polishing myself as i used to be a metal polisher and have just spent the best part of 30-40 hours polishing the billet rims and swingarm on my raptor 700 and its like chrome
the wheels would be cake as their flat would only be a couple of hours each

 

[paul26982]

do it do it, getting me jelious now, keep me posted so i know when pics are up

 

[jimbob99]

lol no problem, need to dig the car out of the 3ft snow drift and get to the bank 1st

 

[chrisp517]

Yeah I see the ones on ebay but £500 notes for a set needing refurbing and some rubber does seem alot when you can have a brand new set of after market wheels and tyres for around the same total cost
