ever since pvs i have thought that the wheels, height and steinmetz skirts were letting my car down.
how it was at pvs:
how it stands at the moment:
FILTHY! lol
going to be lowering it about 80mm, refurb my slabs for now until i find a set of wheels that stand out but i thought about polishing them and if i dont like them just refurb them black christopher done a photoshop lowered around 80mm on polished slabs, not sure on them though but they seem to grow on me more i look at them, might also space them out 10mm or so.
photoshop:
any ideas are much appreciated
Edit: the front arch was only placed on for the pic it wont sit like that when im done

Doesn't look right polished imo.
Slabs are very marmite wheels these days it seems. Personally I still think they suit the B though.
I'd do them the same colour as the car though

Loads of Corsas had D90s before Kierans. I don't know what else to suggest, I could sit here and suggest loads but at the end of the day its what you like not what I like.

I think these would look decent on a corsa.
