    Did you try the 17's on btw?

    You got a side on view to see how they sit in the arches? How does it feel with the lower offset
     
  9. I did try on the 17s but without camber they pocked out too much

    How was the clearance with the brakes?

  16. They do look nice, quite offset though can you tell if they'd foul the arch on extreme compression?

    I ran some wheels on my old car that looked fine and didn't have an issue till shell bend at Oulton and the arch started taking lines of rubber out the tyre :x
     
  17. Black now IMG_20150516_181747_zps1kr7tg2h.jpg
     
  18. How's the ride on H&R compared to standard, softer, harder, or similar
     
  19. Couldn't tell you buddy I got the car with them already on
     
  20. They look good in black
     

  21. Agreed - they look shit hot now, esp on a Red 250
     
  22. Looking real good bud
    A little harder
     
  23. They looks spot on fella :wink:
     
  24. Cheers chaps, really loving the look now and the federal 595 rs-r tyres are just epic!
