Polys fall apart with semi slicks!
You need seriously good and stiff suspension to work slicks properly, if you dont you wont get the temp into them.

Lee just get slicks anyway. Would of been better if you had 17s, ex BTCC (dunlop) or WTCC (yokohama) slicks are only £150 for 4 delivered from touring car spares.
Saying that I dont think 18s from the from the front of porsche cup wheels are too expensive either

mine came with them on only ever seen them in demon tweeks there brand new so if there half decent ill keep them on, also what is the stud pattern 5x100? where did you get your adapters for your porsche wheels from? thinking about bmw x5s for mine not sure if a 10j rear will be a bit big tho....

10j out back is possible but you'd need the arches rolling. yeah the weitecs are alright, keep them on! Adaptors from Venom buddy, FK ones. if you can afford it go for H&R's as they have steel inserts.

nothing exciting, just ordered bolts for the s3 brace and fitted a new drivers window reg as the old one snapped a cable, fairly straight forward jobs
