Deffo @Merlin, I was kinda looking forward to doing the EL dials though, still, all these jobs have to be done so at least these are now off the list.

Honestly can't remember the wheel offset since I bought them so long ago, but ET45 rings a bell :? :oops: :lol:

? Oh, do you mean the koni adjuster? I have looked mate, but no luck so far I'm afraid :(

@jebb4 Thanks man. :) TBH I owe a great deal to Performance Autoworks and Rich in particular, he came up with the spec after a good few chats on the subject, and then of course, did a bloody good job of building it 8-)

Ahhh :lol:
No, I didn't want to start it last weekend in case I ran into issues as needed the car this week, but now have all the bits to hopefully make it a straightforward job.

@JEBB4 - Just updated the tyre size. Something was bugging me so I did a search through my email inbox....bought the wheels 10 years ago :o
Anyway, updated the size up there ^
HTH

BTW, this is quite a handy tyre size compare widget thingamabob:
