Very nice
but why you bought new wheels and still using spacers? Should've got wider wheels lol

Next ones up can only be fitted with coilovers as they rub on the suspension - I don't want em!
Then if you put spacers on those to bring it away from the suspension they stick too far out the arch

I did my research and got diagrams/measurements dont worry lol, best option for practicality, comfort and price (tyre price jumped up dramatically on the wider wheels, and Im not interested in stupid amounts of stretch)

Lol fuck off you, I had to as figuring it out in my head was too complicated! ET, J (inch into mm), tyre width and height %, then comparing it to my existing setup to see how it would sit inline with the arch
Doing this for acouple of offsets for 3 sizes of wheels!
None of this trial and error bollocks
I couldn't allow for suspension travel though, that caught me out

Aii, can be a bit of a head test when you've got spacers too with different widths front and back!
I got some new thinner spacers because of the wide alloys, just 17mm this time instead of the 30mm last time, just a touch over the front spacers that are 15mm! Did seem to play with the handling slightly being 1.5cm wider at the rear, could of been making that up in my head though! Had to cut the standard threads down by about 4mm to let the spacers fit over the top, the rest sat in the recess on the alloys (about 5mm) which was handy. First time with an angle grinder, and I didnt lose a finger
Hooray!
No pics but its basically just flush now with the arch, the alloys lip poking out a very slight bit, afew mm!
Took delivery of a replica GReddy lip from Ray Customs yesterday, got a good look at it and test fitted it tonight, looks spot on! Still crap left on my bumper as well from the old lip, so once thats cleared up it be as snug as it can be!
Probably a better shape than my bumper actually, which has been knocking about in the garage for half a year!
