wheels look ace nic
i wouldn't worry too much about the M58, i've lived round here all my life and for the first 6 months of driving i always ended up going in the wrong direction where the 58 meets the M6 that or i may just be a moron

oh no, i have normal mirrors for it in the garage. they need a lick of paint just havent got round to it.
wheels wil get a touch up, but really the paint on them isnt why i bought them at all. as you say, price was right so had to make the trip down south. worth every penny aswell. cant beat a random road trip to meet some mental scousers.

well today my old trusty mate slick came round with some grinding equipment so we could attack the callipers. honestly needed hardly any metal removed.
wheel on
wheel turns nicely.
then did something i thought id never do.......
bye bye speedlines. ive had them since 2001 or 2002. probably due a change of wheel. so all 4 mo's are now on.
well happy indeed. thanks to gaz for selling them.
so the fronts have 1 kleber and 1 fullrun on them. proper cheap and nasty stuff. on the roads near my house there are massive 11's all over the place. down the newcastle road in 4th gear it lit up and left a massive long set of them as i was over taking an x5. ive not giggled so much in ages. spent about 20 minutes doing peel outs. how old am i again?

Maybe a tad lower at the back would finish it off?

if anything, it maybe needs to be a bit higher on the back. will have to see how it goes.

cool you never thought of up grading to a plate type with a high lock when full power on would make a big diffrance just depends on your £££££
