double-6s 0 Posted May 14, 2006 Nowhere near mate! Fek me there's plenty more to go :) Need some arch work before it goes any lower though. And need to get 205's on the rear as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted May 14, 2006 Anyway, I'm not talking to you G - you had those pads off Andi :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gaz the geezer 0 Posted May 14, 2006 Anyway, I'm not talking to you G - you had those pads off Andi :lol: you snooze, you lose :lol: i quess it makes a change for me to get lucky, i seem to remember a time that everything i looked at was bought by someone else before i had a chance to write the pm :) , my old vr is going to be a lot quicker soon so it will need a bit more stopping ability. what`s the wheel size you got will, i know they are 17" but whats the et and width and is it rubbing at the back or front mate ?

double-6s 0 Posted May 14, 2006 wheels are 7.5x17 et35 tyres are 205/40/17 front and 215/40/17 rear. rubbing is at back - i reckon it would be better with 205's. the 205's on the front go inwards from the rim, whereas the 215's go out from the rim a wee bit. tiny bit taller side walls too. i'm gonna swap em round tomorrow and see what happens.

lukeage 0 Posted May 14, 2006 sweeeeeet - the B's hang out just right, but with some arch work will look even phatter! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted May 14, 2006 How does rolling go wrong mate? It's just folding up the horizontal lip inside the arch. should be ok shouldn't it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gaz the geezer 0 Posted May 14, 2006 have you seen a rolling tool ?, if not, here`a a piccy the pressure applied can distort the panel work as the rolling takes place, they usually try to warm up the surrounding with a heat gun or something similar to prevent it but it can happen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
