Just my personal opinion bud, but I think those wheels look to small in dia & lost in those arches :roll: , but as long as your happy happy days :)

Well it was originally running 195/65/15 on the standard wheels, so with it been lowered I thought to save the wheels fouling the arches a 195/55/15 profile would save them lol

Been a while since I've posted, not really changed much on the big pug except a set 20mm spacers to fit 306 cyclone wheels and a bonnet bra (which only goes on for long journeys to save the bonnet)

Also been and bought some new headlights and fitted some HIDs too.
Really don't know what will be next on the list as I really don't want to do much more to it as I'm happy how it is (for now [emoji12] )

The lowering looks pretty tasteful. I don't like it when the tyres go up into the arches. On the other hand, most 406s look like they're on stilts. Does the lower profile have any effect on the gearing and the speedo or is it too small to notice?

Personally, I'm quite happy to let bonnet tits to hang out. :P
I wonder whether some of us are old enough to have burnt our bonnet bras.
(In fairness, the front of my bonnet consists of more chips than paint.)

Funnily enough I know where there's a set for sale :cheesy:
