Alloys

[JamesLCR]

Yeah I suppose your right. Just going for the stance look then going stage 2+ hopefully next may or June. Just collecting the parts each month off pay from work lol

 

[benrace91]

Yeah that's what I'm aiming for! Was swaying towards the JOM Coilovers but would rather pay the same for a "decent" set of springs. £180 is far to cheap for coily's and I'd have to buy twice I reckon with them!

Is there much point stancing and going stage 2+? Ultra lows with camber isn't really set up for speed, just looks

+1.

 

[Jarre]

Yeah I didn't want to buy cheap buy twice so I bought APs as I read good reviews over a lot of different cars mostly the mk5 platform. £436

 

[benrace91]

That will be next stage once I'm bored of the sportlines! In two minds to either keep standard alloys or sell. Won't be selling the car so don't know what to do!

 

[Jarre]

If you're definitely keeping the car then sell the original alloys as thatll offset the mods you've done

 

[benrace91]

Yeah make some money back! How much do you think they'd go for? One alloy has kerbing. Other 3 are fine

 

[Jarre]

Not sure, I've been considering selling mine over winter as I've got 16s with winter tyres to put on. That way I have the money and a few months to source exactly what I want

 

[benrace91]

Yeah, now is the right time I think when people might want them for winter wheels!

 

[Jarre]

Yeah fair point. Hate seeing my car with 16s on though

 

[benrace91]

Big chunky tyres lol?

 

[Jarre]

195/60/16 I think

 

[benrace91]

Nice haha

 

[Jarre]

This was last winter haha

 

[benrace91]

Arghhhh put it away!!!!

 

[Jarre]

Disgusting isn't it! Only consolation is that it's blatantly obvious they're winters and not the ones I actually want on haha

 

[JamesLCR]

I was looking at sport lines. They lower car by 70mm don't they?

 

[benrace91]

Haha hopefully people would realise yeah!

70mm all round maybe yeah?

 

[JamesLCR]

That's what I thought. But on ebay they say 20-30 for pro and sport line. Surely that's wrong
