C_WRX Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Finally got to spend some money . Couple of changes over the last few days, can you see them ??! The before picture : Couple of after pictures : ...and yes I know it is filthy in the wheel arch !!
Frank_STI Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Very nice mate! Same finish that is on my wheels so beware of corrosion on them
scoobyiain Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Nice. I remember Craig mac had those wheels on thunder, very nice indeed.
C_WRX Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) Ah, well done, I know it was a toughy but yes prodrive springs and some new wheels. Thanks to Ian Grieve for the springs - need to be nice to them as they're dealing with a "money back" thing for me ! Can't say I notice a huge difference since fitted but I'm driving slower for bit with the new rubber on. Thanks to Skidz for the good price on the alloys and tyres - I know it was as the distributor messed up delivery so I got a little extra off ! Customer services well handled by Skidz. At first glance I thought they were a bit too blingy for me, but have to say they're really growing on me now...just as well given I've paid for them !! Thanks to the Dunc's at Hypertech for the geometry setting and the chat that kept him away from his work ! Top man. To quote the wife - "Now that's it, no more spending on the car for a while". She never defined time length on "for a while" Detail soon and 3rd brake light needs fixed are next on the list : Edited June 4, 2008 by C_WRX
thewelsho Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Very nice, will keep an eye ou for it on my next trip to Sun

Duncan (Hypertech) was having a good laugh at me and the good wife nearly having a domestic when he was explaining to me about what whiteline gear to get in what order. Seriously though, no more spending.....for now ! nice, do you have any trouble with ground clearance with the new springs?looks good, like the polished wheel nuts, did they come with teh wheels, where could i get myself some gold ones? Ground clearance is fine, tested them out in the John Lewis car park over the weekend and no issues. Not sure about the wheel nuts as the distributor messed up their delivery to Skidz so I got an extra discount/deal for which the nuts were to be supplied if not already with the wheels. Give Skidz a call and ask them if they do gold, although can't say I saw any on their display. Thanks to All for the good comments, was bit worried when I saw them on at first but they quickly grew on me. The kerbs and I now stay well away from each other !!! Edited June 11, 2008 by C_WRX
