Nice look, nice stance and nice brakes.
I feel like hitting the buy it now button on those Wilwood brakes!

Although, I'm surprised Shannon you got dramas with the kit!

Tomsun... all you need is 5 stud hubs to make it work with your multistud wheel setup!

would be interesting to know what you had to do to make them fit.

Did you by any chance fit the rotors on the outside of the spindles?
=> No spacers?
What offfset (mountingsurface->pad-surface) would the discs be then?
Iv'e been thinking of doing this when I install my coilovers and bigger calipers on the "spare"-legs....

So i just realized i've been mostly updating my Facebook page rather than this thread.

I had blue walls added for the last cruise, just to try and be a bit different and break the car up a bit.

I had to add this cruise pic hoonie took the other day, as it's my favourite shot yet (Even if it has Aaron's ugly mug in it riding shotgun).

Also today i fitted my 20 inch FPV Dark Argent rims more for a laugh, but also as i'm thinking about buying new rims, or possibly painting my centres on my current rims this colour and leaving the outers polished.

FYI 20's fit a piece of piss with no scrubbing and thats still a 245 tyre.

Old VS new rofl

If you paint your old rims. Centers a gun metal grey do you have to strip the 3-pieces or can you do them assembled?

The dish wins.

Different, yes... but not breaking up enough, for me.... but still very ok!!!

shannon those dark argent wheels are nice as :) its a pity that now even our big bad 'muscle' cars run massive offset wheels with no dish, those in a 3 piece with 4" lip would be sick :)

I drove on them all yesterday! No scrubbing at all

Between the 2, the older shinier wheels are better.
All wideys look good with some sort of 5 spoke dished wheels though me thinks...
That's what's going on mine... :)
