Sure you can live without 500hp, but it\'s languishing.

Only thing is I really need lowering springs now, those arch gaps look huge after the 17's!

thats way too big even for stock, my bet is you took those not long after swopping the wheels.

the suspension hasn't settled yet.

I guessed that, the brakes feel like crap too. I'm going to take it for a run later to settle things down.

Very nice   s8) 8) s8)   - anthracite looks great with the black paintwork on your car...    s:D :D s:D   Not sure how good it would look with other colours though...   s:? :? s:?  

<edit>Though thinking about it an anthracite finish on the alloys might look good on silver cars I guess</edit>

hhhmmm, i think proper white may look a little bling bling cheap. In the photo thats just the sun on the stock wheels... now that is worrying if people think we have white wheels on our cars!!   s:shock: :shock: s:shock:    s:lol: :lol: s:lol:    s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

I wouldn't think so, but I have aftermarket wheels (my 17's, of which they took absolutely no details of) declared anyway, so it doesn't matter to me

Slacey, as you know, I am not a mod man, but I have said in the past that your motor was the epitome of "stealth" and "taste" when it comes to mods and I have to say, you have done it again!! I really liked the 17"ers (even if they were after market  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:    s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  ), but the stocks in that colour REALLY look the biz mate!

Even I would seriously consider that!!! Where is this KN place then eh?
