Great pics.

 

[quattrojames]

It does look good.

The spacers will finish it nicely, what width are you going for?

I think it's shame to have the tidy looking grille let down by the number plate in the windscreen if I'm honest.

 

[Paullie]

Looking very smart there, Rich! Cool piccies, keep up the good work. xx

 

[hades-]

looking good
i cant run no front plate anymore iv had to many warnings and fines
they do say the window aint the proper place so watch out for the fines rollin in

 

[Marrow]

Looks good mate but you desperatley need spacers on those wheels !!!!

 

[bigrich690]

I know about the spacer job, just nagociating a price with my mate with that cupra on a set of 10mm spacers for the rear, so long as they are hub centric and still waiting on my long bolts and locking wheel nuts to arrive too, as for the number plate, I don't drive with it like that through the day it was just coz I was having a cleaning setion with about 10 lads (cars) so looked good with it off and went to ultimate dubs on Sunday so was showing off really lol but thanks for all the comments guys

Looking good, silver is hard to beat when its clean.

As said spacers will finish it off.

Whats coilovers you running? might just be the pics but it is lower at the back?

 

[bigrich690]

Yea mate running ap coilovers and slammed at the back all the way just need them dam spacers lol

 

[D2NY G]

looking smart lad, cant wait for coilovers me, want some slammage!

only thing id say with yours is get them headlights de tango'd would smarten up the front then

 

[bigrich690]

Yea really funny you should say that coz I was looking at my car this morning (like you do) and thought to myself "they need to be clear" lol

 

[D2NY G]

yep i thought the same before i did mine.

whats the ride like on them collies mate, hoping to have me a set real soon

 

[bigrich690]

Good I think, I thought the s-line suspension was comfy though and alot say they think it's harsh so my opinion my not count lol but I seem to enjoy it

 

[D2NY G]

yeah i like the sline suspension me, just need the lows what u running? collies and loweredness

 

[stocky#1]

What width are your rims?

Also what offset?

 

[bigrich690]

yeah i like the sline suspension me, just need the lows what u running? collies and loweredness

Im running ap coilovers, -75mm rear and about -80mm front

 

[bigrich690]

What width are your rims?

Also what offset?

8" wide and offset is Et50

 

[D2NY G]

sweet, im runing 19x9, ET41 so should look ok slammed, u had to adjust any camber?

 

[bigrich690]

Nah not adjusted camber but I did have Et35s on before and the scrapped like mad at the back but these wheels I have now were off an A3 so the ET is way out and need some spacers

 

[D2NY G]

am not too clue'd up with spacer n ET's an camber yet. Will have to get ma coilovers, set it were a want it, then sort out the stance issues with possible camber or spacers, **** knows really lol!

 

[bigrich690]

A standard 18"x8" s line alloy is ET42, so as I have a 19"x8" ET50 wheel I need an 8mm spacer to get it back to standard ET, as for camber etc Ive never done any of that as the tire wear would be uneven, so if your running on 9" wheel that's 12.5mm extra of wheel at both sides (25mm whole) so if your wheels are Et41 then minus 12.5 of of 41 to give you an ET of about 29-29.5 so your wheels will deffinately catch the arches as my last wheels where 8" ET 35 and rubbed pretty good, I know it's alot to take in but trust me, I did the calculations lol

 

[bigrich690]

Other way is to get smaller tires and stretch those motha ****as lol

 

[D2NY G]

lol, well im running 235's on them at min, yeh the whole spacer issue is gunna take a bit of working out lol so ill cross that bridge when a get to it lol

 

[bigrich690]

It's all backward mate you will not need spacers et29 is wide mate as in getting close to sticking out the arches ET50 like mine are tucked way in the arch so I need spacers to push them away from the car just hope this all helps I know when I first heard about wheels and width and ET I just couldnt make any sense of any of it

 

[D2NY G]

ahh right a get ya lad, ill get it sorted nice one!

 

[bigrich690]

Just wanted to make sure you knew the score lol
