Wheels look so good! Nice to see somebody doing something different. I'd give up using springs to go low at the front unless getting some custom ones made or something. Just keep an eye out on 106OC and here for someone selling second hand GAZ GHA's and get them. Worthwhile buy I think.

Cheers guys 
i forgot to mention as well that i got the rear de-wipered the other day as well, i'll get a picture up when my car is a bit cleaner, haven't washed it in weeks!
Also..
Does anyone know what sort of tyre size would give the wheels a little bit of stretch but not too much?
They are 7J 13"
thanks!

So the wheels are on!
The back looks fine to me but the front defo needs to come down another 20mm or so :/
Only got some rubbish pictures at the moment
Gonna get some good pictures somewhere when its a sunny day and had a wash, cheers for looking 
Oh and also, centre caps are in the post!

Those wheels are excellent but I just can't help but think they're to small? 14's would have been perfect!!

Fair play man, those wheels look the nuts, could do with a little spacing all round, and a lot of lowering on the front haha, 20mm wont cut it mate! You're gonna need gaz coilies with custom springs. Get saving!

I cant really space them out anymore, the tread on the front tyres as actually slightly sticking out from the arch but hopefully nobody will notice!
GAZ coilies are on my to do list, im just waiting for a 2nd hand set to come up on ebay or on here

Ahh fair enough mate, might just be the angle of the photos then!
I'll keep an eye out for some coilies aswell man, they come up on 106oc quite often.
