I mean it in the least dickish way but as much as I love the wheels, they look too big to me. The arch is sat on the tyre but its not at all low.
Amazing wheels though!

The law is:
The top centre point of a wheel can be no more than 30mm out of the arch
The tyre tread MUST be within the arch.
A tyre must NOT make contact with the arch
I'm looking at the gap between the will and floor. And it needs raising yet! Its going to be higher than Prickles was prior to lowering!

I really hope you do. It'll look immense if you pull it off. Personally though, it has got to go at least relatively low to work on polished 3 pieces.

Well actualy after looking at it again i think i want it about 2 inch lower plan is to cut more out of the metal arch behind bring the arches out further same woth the sideskirt add a bit that comes out to match and also cut and extend the rear bumpers width going to take my time wanted it done for fcs but had some crazy plans and done some epic photoshops!

i was thinking this aswel. At first i thought the front of the car would be jacked up, the ground clearance is huge!
plans sound good though, hope you pull it off

To let you know, it was almost undrivable when James had these fitted, He had to have bigger arches.
