shes not going low!! im leaving it as it stands part from windows now, and just tidying the rest of it up

they actually have 26mm spacers on at the minute!!! they were only ones we had to hand!! ideally i think 10mm would be perfect, the front miss calipers by about 2mm and catch on full lock without spacers, rears sit agaisnt shocker and rear arm, and just moves if you put force on.

ive cleaned the car this evening, inside out :) looks gorgeous now with the wheels, drives and handles like you wouldnt believe, but ya get a lot of road noise from the 225 tyres!!

Looks good there Jay. And super clean too. You might start a trend with the 308 wheels. Can't say i'm keen on the towbar but needs must i guess
