shame about the bluddy wheels 17's it handles like crap and rubs like crazzy.
anyone running 17's on there 5?? please tell me how to get them to roll smoother id hate to have to buy more wheels.
A to da L to da I to da G, ALI G thats me
If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it?
Westside is tha best!
The colour and the interior are You should hopefully make yourself some money back converting the outside back to phase 2 and selling the unwanted items
I doubt you'll be doing that just yet though since you have just bought it
Are you bringing it to Pod?
im going to keep it how it is for now just gotta do something about the wheels its almost undrivable.
i know theys cars are classic cars now and everyone wants to put them back origanal, but personally i think the modded 5 was what made the car popular my memeroy is seeing kitted up 5's in magazines and going round when i was a kid i used to draw pictures of them everyday & dream about oneday owning one.
plus its nice see one a bit diffrent at shows etc.
yup i am definatly going to take it pod day.
westside!
Big up luke G innit, dat ride is proppa slamming gee, bet dem tunes iz rawkuss innit, you iz proppa retro magazeen feecha styling..., seriously though its good to see you back in a 5....they all come back......
Must admit, I liked the look of that - I saw it up for sale recently.
Stick some less chav side skirts and an OE front bumper on, some smaller / less chav wheels and you'll have yourself a beauty
Good to see you back in a 5 Sh1tter!!
I like that colour

I like it Not so much the wheels though. Even some 16'' wheels will fill the arches and not rub as bad, if at all.
Prob one of the nicer kitted 5's i've seen, with a few little things removed (splitters for one) i'd be happy to leave the rest alone if it was mine. Nice colour too.
I've ran 17's on a 5 before, to be honest not much work involved to get the running ok with no rubbing.
i just put up with the rubbing on mine never caused that much troble apart from a real big turning circle! never had any probs with mot either but the fella would pass anything though.
Welcome back matey
Like the look of that! Surely sell the 17s to fund some 15s though. Whats the point in getting rid of the rubbing if it handles like crap anyway :P
