Just a cheap ebay stick-on rubber lip... Seems to be quite popular lip choice here  s:D :D s:D

BBS wheels from E30 325i
14x6.5 4x100 185/60/14 Front, 205/60/14 Rear
ET 30
More pics soon.

And stock wheels painted graphite. 205/50/15 Front, 225/50/15 Rear


The BBS wheels have become my daily wheels, the stock ones are getting wrapped in grippy tires either new street tires or lightly used r-comps, for time trials and track days.

Can you still put soft top up with that cage out of interest

Can't help feel the front has too much camber and the rear offset needs some attention Art! :o

I had to look that one up 😂
I don't think my car has as much six appeal as the anglia to warrant the change in moniker. 😎

What wheel nuts do you folks have for your aftermarket wheels, and where do you get them from? I've got a set of Japan Racing alloy wheels, but the standard nuts are too wide...in respect to the girth of the chamferred part. Consequently, I can't use my wheels :(

...Or was it because of a captive washer, I can't remember now :-\

I had a set to use so can't give any recommendations on where to buy but iirc the standard wheels use nuts with a flat shoulder whereas aftermarket wheels often need a tapered shoulder type nut to give a secure fit. Also worth checking if you need spigot rings unless your wheels are the correct bore.

Ahhh yes, sorry, that's the correct way round  :withstupid: I need tapered, and the standard nuts are flat with a wide captive washer.
I do have spigot rings, which Miles kindly gave me when he sold me the JP Racing alloys
