rear tyres are 235s fronts are 215s

ideally id like to go 10x18 on the rear and get side wider tyres but traction isnt as big a deal as you might think due to all the weight sitting over the wheels

and it does look a bit dodgy at the mo but it was cornerweighted and setup like that,
but it needs cornerweighting and a full geometry setup again as its come apart so many times stuffs been moved about.

i hope to get the front down and the rear up a bit so should look a bit better


BUT

if it looks ****e but works poperly then thats how its gunna stay lol its all about the drive of this car.


i did all the prep work and some of the paint, and i have stil got to do all the finishing off .


and driveability is great, it drives like a normal ca, fells like its got power steering, very easy/stable at speed to


oh and those pics are a bit old,
its go new side repeaters and fully painted wing mirrors on now

Stu, when you next need some pads, look them up and give them a go, I think you'll be impressed with them :D
