JayGT 0 Posted June 7, 2007 No problem matey... BJV had some nice cars and wheels in there including a blackbery Corrado VR with polished Audi TT Comps. It was very nice but a lil too shiny for my liking although it did get me tempted to have some work done :) Post up some pics when you get em back!

IrishG60 0 Posted July 17, 2007 Sold the car this week,via Pistonheads,guy from Ireland Yeah here in rainy Ireland there's feck all Rado's on the road.. and any there are are either insanely overpriced due to their rarity...or have been massacred on the roads... so either avoid or get a second mortgage...

Goldie 2 Posted August 8, 2007 The Kws are excellent but im usre they allow you to go lower than that.. :) Love the wheels.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BILLCOR 1 Posted August 9, 2007 The Kws are excellent but im usre they allow you to go lower than that.. :) Love the wheels.... Cheers mate, I'm really pleased with the wheels, as for going lower, I think the pics are deceiving or maybe just crap :lol: I was trying to find a quiet spot (bloody tourists) but I think the camber on the road is kinda making the car lean to the far side, making the gap between wheel and arch larger, also the wheels were fitted after the coilys :? She's going back in to get some other bits done in a couple of weeks so if need be I'll get them screwed down a bit :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
