They are actually the tyres that were destined for the silver 4th gen. They're only 8.5mm taller in the radius, but it might be the difference making them look massive. I don't mind it though... It is retro after all ;-)

But yeah, I'm popping in to Halfords tonight to get some tyre blacking stuff :lol: They got absolutely covered in dust from the bodyshop. You should have seen the inside of the car :?

I'm going to wait until the new exhaust is on to see if I can afford to go any lower. Still got a set of BC's saved in my watchlist 8)

Nathan do you want my shocks and springs? Tokico dampers and eibach springs. If you have standard i would want one of your old rear springs. Would need you to pick them up though

Hit me with a price Sam. I believe they're standard shocks, but they are lowering springs... Just not as low as yours. How much do yours lower incidentally?

Got some Armor All Tyre Foam today at lunch. Amazing stuff! The tyres are black and shiny once more :D
