I run myn to the side, or not run it atall :lol: ... cars still looking low as bally, ive got my plate on the same side as well!! mines smaller than that tho as i had a short german style 1 on and it lasted a few days before a speed bump took her from me!! :x
-
sounds like a cunning plan, just leave the wheels out of the pics!! seriously need to get some mirrors back on!!!

hey mate, cheers for the comments. cant remember where i got it from, when i get home i'll have a look for the details an post up my findings, having said that tho its just a standard motorbike size. so i would guess most places that do them may be able to do you 1 in white for the front.

hi mate, all you need is a couple of L shape brackets, attatch to the bumper and then attatch your plate to the brackets!! simple. its what i did after gettin hassle from the :lcop: once too often. my front plate is still illegal as its a tiny 1 but they seem to have left me alone, cant run a full size plate as im too low!!

i'd def get the balancing looked at, i had a similar problem after a couple of the sticky wheel weights came unstuck. steering wheel was vibrating, took it to my mate who re balanced it and job done no vibrations anymore.

:offtopic1: :new-bday: happy 21st herisites

no probs, ive got my arches pulled and flared so couldnt comment if they would rub or not, herisites on here has my old wheels on his vr now and if i remember right he cut the lip back a bit on the rears and sealed it with silicone. im sure he still gets a bit of rubbing but nothing major. best bet is to drop him a pm on here mate. as for the arch rolling in lancs i cant help, but i would guess awesome gti would do it, just depends how close you are to them!! ben

ya not wrong there, last few times ive dropped the misses back home in surbiton, ive seen a f430 conv, a few lambo's and a hell of a lot of aston's. used to get excited at seeing all the nice supercars, now its just a normal every day thing!! :lol: never once seen another rado tho!! does that make them extra special?? :lol:
-
et30 and et15 are the offsets of the wheels, the lower the et number the further out the wheels stick!!
-
looking good roberto, god if only i had some money!! :cry: wonder if the folks would let me move back in!! :lol:

mines the same, and mine is only a 50mm spoiler. catches on a drop curb as well!!! speed bumps i dont do!! :lol:

:shock: ouch, thats gonna hurt!! poor bloke must be gutted

with a et30 out back you may run into fouling issue's with your suspension. im running a et20 and its close, cant even get my little finger between the wheel and coilover.
