Doesn't sound too bad then. I'm on BC's not mega low but it lower than standard.

Hmmm I'm getting tempted to buy these XXR's now. I need to see some in 17" form on something like mine :twisted:

I'm on Bc as well but upgraded to harder springs so less body roll and a lower car without the tyres hitting top of the arch in full compression :)

Ha I know 18" is the way but that means buying new tyres too, I have a brand new set of 17" AD08s sat in the garage :hm:

Ooo that's something I'm considering with my BC's what did you go for?

Literally just saw that pic on the other forum..............

Look much better on the X don't they, tyres should be stretched though but ET20 is to much for the 5

17" it is then :)

I went for 10k front 8k rear. Standard they are 6k all round. Makes for a much harder ride though. Its quite annoying on local roads with pot holes and its no good softening the dampers off cos then there is no rebound and the whole car just turns into a boat the way it launches itself in there air when you get dips in the road.

Couldn't agree more.

That pic confirmed my fear of 17's in those alloys. Never mind I'm thinking its gonna be a refurb of my enkeis WRC's. Thinking same colour as supermarios wheels that he showed me earlier in the thread.

Watched a vid of the Richard burns 5 WRC car running my wheels, made me want to keep em :wub:
