I put the super t gt's back on a few weeks ago, but was bored today so i thought id take a few (ok loads) of pics.

I know the one headlight looks abit weird, but it helps route air straight to the bmc, and it does drive a little better.

Iv also put the cat and centre box back in, as motorway driving was just plain annoying with the burble and drone of the straight through.

Oh, and i dont really wanna lower any more, as i like not having to slow down too much for speed bumps etc !

c+c welcome

Love your car mate! and some quality pics! to show it off nicely!

Are they 16s? or 15s? and how much have you lowered your car by?

You have fitted racing seats, but you haven't taken any pics of the interior!

Judging by the location of some of your pictures you must be confident in your parking abilities smileys/smiley17.gif get that wrong and your car gets a bit wet!

Keep up the good work!

Different profile tyres? Just an idea. smileys/smiley14.gif

Loverly car btw. smileys/smiley20.gif

yea thats true, but even on my standard vtr rims, it seemed to sit a bit higher than others?

when those tyres wear out i need to get some 195/40's as iv 195/45's all round at the min, and im gettin a bit of buffing at the rear when going over bad bumps or going down country roads.

not looking to paying near on £76 a tyre for a 40 profile ! !

Has your car had any bodywork done to get a wheels on or were they a straight fit?

they are 16" rim with a 45 profile tyre, they fit okish. But as the profile is too large (ie should have a 40 profile) i do get buffing at the rear.

The only thing i have done is remove all of the inner arch guards, as they were rubbing against the front tyres on full lock and the rears when buffing.

Gorgeous matey, love the morettes mate!

One thing Id change is the vtr badge on the boot. It clutters it up a little.
