nankangs will be going on im going to use the car every day so wanted a tyre size that is going to be right but still a stretch so going 195 45 15 ..... i might use some others for show days same wheels just different tyres ?

cool stuff, nankings are the tyres to stretch lol. not too hot in the wet tho

did Andy come and do the glass today mate? wasn't around when he came to pick them up but told Brian to make sure he picked the rubbers up as well

yeh m8 thanks another think to tick off the list big thanks for them :) sitll need to come up for the other bits m8

no probs, still chasing an engine up for you,got one in mind, just got to pry it from its current owner lol

thanks mate can you turbo it for me to :)

Common mate, its taking you ages to get this car finished hahaha.

I got some Uniroyals on mine mate, top looking tire :)

well its my birthday today but till got up at 6 to work on car lol roof lining and pillars now in :)






thought i would try the wheels lol ...still need spacers and tyres

Looks amazing!

i was unsure on the colour, but those wheels change my mind gonna look great when finished

Thanks m8 I've just been looking at photos of wheels and I'm not going to to able to see my big brakes lol bugger :(

Wow looks amazing with them wheels!

your thread makes me happy :clapping:

nice job mate looking very smart
and happy birthday to

Cant tell without a side on view, but them wheels dont look to need spacing. Unless its for clearance issues but then how did u fit them for the photos? Although extreme poke can look good and mean its illegal and doesnt really take much effort. Anyone can stick wide wheels on without to much effort, get it as close to hellaflush as u can i say. Also you need to spray your posiblue bolts that hold your bootlid on, dont think there covered by trim are they? Happy birthday btw

Lol wow you don't miss a trick with bolts. Don't worry they will be clean up . The wheels only just go on they have a 38 mm off set people saying I need to get 20mm spacers . I don't want wheels to stick out to much . But front and rear catch so what size do you think I should get ?

Ha its down to the details. Just got ur pm mate, so how did you manage to bolt them on for the pics? If they have 20mm to much postive offset they wont bolt up! What they catching on? What width are the wheels front & back now, with the new dishes? Might be worth putting a swap post on edition38 wheel whores etc, Prob someone out there wanting bigger barrels and smaller dishes etc.

The wheels bolt up with no spacers but catch front strut and rear inner arch so I need to put spacers on to bring them out . Can you pm me a contact number better to explain that way thanks

Bridgestone 165/50/15's abit ott for what your after id say:


Did abit of digging about for u as discussed and the tyres i was looking at fitting where
175/50/15's eagle f1's, however not sure if you can still get them

Pics of the 185/45/15's nakangs fitted, where stupidly rare tyres to get nakang uk couldnt even get me a set, think i was 1 of the 1st people to get them. However that was afew years ago and i think there often shipped over now from what i've briefly read.







Only pics i have with the 195/45 toyo's on the rear, Couldnt get it any lower than this ideally needed raising 5mm or so:







Hope this helps mate, let me know how you get on with the spacers etc

Thanks m8 I'll get looking can get hold of 185 for it's just front need to sort :(
