My 12mm spacers came, so ran outside and fitted them, and some 5mm on the front to.

Didn't want to go to much as it's on standard ride height and just wanted it to look better and not stick out to far. Then a 2BM wash and a wipe over with Z6 and tyres dressed.

Well fitted my 10mm hub centric spacers up front ( final E.T 41 ) and my 15mm hub centric rear spacers ( final E.T 36 )

With the drop from the Eibach sportlines the final results look good, the wheels just sit inside of the arch lip....

I'm also toying with the idea of fitting an Linea R front grill, I've been offered a 2nd hand one posted for £50.00, is this a good deal????????????

Nar I'm on the BTCC 18" BBS seat alloys, I'm not sure whether there 7.5J or 8J thou???? but there fitted with 225/40/18 tyres....I think that when they need replacing i'll be putting 215/35's on thou, there a bit to much side wall for my liking in 225/40 profile....

Saying that I'm looking @ putting so 18" x 9J alloys on in the spring for a fat square setup!!!:p

Not the best view, but you get the idea, wheels hand aligned or settled as it's just off the jack.

Excuse the car, it was washed after this, Z7 and a Z7 wipe over, tyres dressed.

BEFORE, 5mm rear only spacers



AFTER 5mm front, 12mm rear

I've noticed a strange noise coming from the right hand side front wheel when I turn the steering wheel on full lock, it sounds like a creeking noise, not sure if it's the wishbones/lower arms.. Hmm
