Hi from newbie - BigRichi - 28-02-2018

Moley Welcome to the club , nice to see some more Scottish members.

Any plans for the car ??

Not a lot to be honest.

- going in for a service,cambelt and water pump in next week or two.
- front bumper needs painted as the previous owner scuffed it and will probably get the bonnet painted at the same time as its got a fair amount of stone chips.
- As usual the wheels are fecked, however I bought 6 wheels off ebay so gives me a set to reburbish, can swap them on the refurbish the other set (I hate scabby wheels)
- TTE springs to lower it a bit
- TTE backbox
- GROM kit
- Would like bigger wheels but need it to be comfy getting to work everyday.

Seen these and think they would look crackin painted silver

really like them as they look like the standard wheels but at 19 inches dont know how they'd be as everyday wheels

Welcome to the club mate, enjoy your time here :thumbup:

I know lol ****** complicated.
to be honest I'll probably keep the standard ones on or maybe swap to the 18inch 6 spoke ones.
I use the car everyday and think the 19's would be too comprimised for comfort

I've got 19"

They look crackin on Moley.

Really thought they'd be a bit of a squeeze.
Do you need to run coilovers or anything to get them on??
or are they just bolt on...as long as you get the correct offsets and stuff??

Cheers

Well mine is lowered and I needed the arches rolled :w00t:

Welcome aboard ! :biggrin:

Your car looks very similar indeed to mine when I bought it, just a different rear spoiler, my car is earlier and rode even higher !
