Cheers guys, am amazed how much difference a set of wheels can make - so chuffed with how the car looks now

Just need to source some brembos (and maybe buy the cusco BMC stopped) and then time to make the most of it on the track

*cough* Oh and trim the front arch liner as it'll probably scrub how it is now - might need a tiny roll on rear arches though but need to jack the rear arm up to see how it compresses into the arch... Don't want to have to pansy around over any bumps as that would defeat the point of the car for me

I didn't have the arches rolled and had tein monoflex coilovers - didn't cause any issues - I would get rubbing on the fronts when cornering heavily but nothing to worry about - both liners ended up rubbed away

Dont worry mate, I've been showing him the footage from the R's meet on Speedhunters

Nice wheels though mate. Will look a treat.

Bens were 17s though werent they ? Would that also make a difference ?

True

I ran ET12's on mine and had to actually cut the rear arches for exactly this reason........well, I actually rolled them in the B&B carpark at the ring when Gareth and I realised that they rubbed at 'track' speeds

The fence post we found did a lousy job but I decided that tank tape would smarten things up enough until I got home when I could fit the arch extensions (cheap arse JDM bolt on jobbies from a guy on retro rides)
