Title: New Wheels
Post by: Fusjon on April 9, 2013, 20:59
Hey All,

I said I would post some pics up when there is something to see...

Wheels.  16 and 17" Rota Grid with 215/45 and 195/45 Falken 914's... Could do with perhaps a 5mm spacer on the back but i'll see what it's like after lowering.

Toyosport (Che copy?) Manifold.  Had a right mare with the 3 amigos on the cat.

New stereo, microphone clips directly to that useless coin holder therefore making it not quite so useless anymore  s:) :) s:) .  I have also upgraded the speakers for Kicker components (courtesy of s12vea) and flashed the doors with that horrible wickes stuff... I hope the regulator never dies or it'll be tar city!   s:shock: :shock: s:shock:  ... unfortunately I have no pics of the install.

Looks very nice indeed mate.

I'd hold fire on the spacers, I've got 17's and they sit real deep in the arches and look sweet.

Lowering on -30mm springs?

Wheels look nice and once lowered I'm sure you will be happy with the look.

P.s glad you like the speakers  s;) ;) s;)
