Ok chill, only asked as i thought it was booked it for the other changes. Sorry to hear that - jealous cunts no doubt, they dent the wing too?

they don't look like the pressed plates you said you were getting, tax is out on it too in the pic!

What wheels are going on it? They look pretty wide but no side on shots?

beaver28 28th June 2010 22:45

you need some serious smoothing!

and please do the headlights black

timmythechef 28th June 2010 22:51

that rubber looks awesome, sits nicely over them, look huge too :y:

nicole_ 28th June 2010 23:38

looks terrible imo, wheels are far far too big and wide,
banded steelies let a nice looking car down majorly but if your happy with them thats all that matters.

raunchz 28th June 2010 23:40

that stretch looks to verge on being dangerous to drive ?!

i thought that to.....

Andyc123 29th June 2010 18:48

tbh its not as bad as first looks! .. its 195/45/15 on a 9 at the back, so there is alot worse stretch out there. but i can see what you mean tho

blackvtrt 30th June 2010 18:10

Sorry to say it but that looks abit ott. I've done 15" banded steels well over a year ago, after talking to people who said 15's for a daily. In the end without a decent stretch u just cant get the car low enough to pull of a good look, hence why if u look at most the good examples of cleaned/euro saxo's there on 14's or smaller.
Front look spot on stance wise, but the rear looks terrible sits far to high n wide. I tried 195/45's on my 8's and tbh the looked the best (stretch wise), But would only allow me to lower the rear about 70mm or so. I've ran 165/50's which is a big stretch on the fronts and 185's which i find a nice stretch & stance but again wouldn't allow me to lower the rear more than around 85mm. But i think for the best i'd go for 175's on a 8 and 185's on a 9!
If ur set on keeping 195's on the rear go get some toyo's give alot better stretch.
But if im honest i reckon u'll get ALOT of stick of the police for them. The sad fact of the matter is ur driving a car which is considered to be a "boy racers" car, which is often modified etc and so gets alot of unwanted attention as it is. Just so you know aswell they ARE illegal. Alot of people say that as long as the tyre is within the arch etc then they are legal. Which is true to a certain extent but what u've got to remeber is the police can do you for what the consider a unsafe/un-roadworthy car. Them wheels look to stick out to far and the police will do u for been a danger to pedestrains, Also if u arches scrub bthe tyres at all and the police are been abit of a dick they'll do u for having unroadworthy tyres.

Barton1806 30th June 2010 18:21

IMO them banded steelies look crazy wide and set it right off :y: stance is awsum for the euro look your going for and as you have said it really off the road most the time except now till shows etc so the strech isn't really going to be an issue. Loving the progress though mate banded steelies on a sax that not following the crowd :panic: Wicked car.
