Phil K 0 Posted November 21, 2005 scarlett, Would I be right in thinking that you used the same car park? Totally hadn't realised :lol: We went there as I thought I might stand a chance of getting in without ripping half my bumper off (which still scraped on every ramp :oops: ) khurrado, yep same as yours and not with spacers - not entirely sure what off set they are though and they do seem to come out a bit further than my old TSW's did (they were deffo ET35) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil K 0 Posted March 20, 2006 It lives! It lives! It lives! As some of you know my C hasn't run right for a LONG time now and I've been feeling very down with the whole dub scene... so about a week ago it was taken over to the Phirm with a list of issues and they sorted all of it (all for a good price 8) ) So thanks to the Phirm and Riley's AFM I have a healthy beast - all it needs now is an MOT which should happen on Saturday morning! As I'm sure you can all understand I am looking forward to taking it out for a good thrash and will have it clean and ready to shame the lot of ya in the calender pics competition soon ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
