Hyper Zero 1 Black Edition 18x9" ET30 and 255/35x18" Asymmetric 2's. Suspension comprises Bilstein B16 PSS9 coilovers and had to get the rear arches rolled as the tyres were catching.

Welcome!

I recognise the 8 MR from a previous owner on the MLR? Silly question, could you get a close up pic of the arch rolled please? Mine's been done, but i don't think its been done in the area it will catch again if i go to a wider tire.

The pics above were taken before the arches were rolled.....I'll take some at the weekwend if I get a chance. The work was done by a local bodyshop and the lip has been rolled flat against the rear arch and has created a fair bit more clearance.

The X RS is a fantastic car and certainly a better chassis and brakes out of the box than the IX. However I couldn't honestly say which is the best, they're just different and both great to drive on the road. I went back to a IX from the X RS because (a) it was too much money sat in the garage only being used as a weekend car and more importantly (b) I changed the suspension and could never get the new set-up to work properly on typical B roads so rather than chuck even more money at it I got rid.
