Not really been on here over the past week, been busy sorting out wheels and such.
My wheels arrived Wednesday, last week. Delivered form Germany on the Saturday!

RH ZW1s 2pc split rim
17x8 - et60 all round

Tyres: Rapid p609 205/40 - slight stretch

Spacers: 25mm Bolt on

I didn't do much other than try some of my friends Carbon Collective Lustre and attempt to polish them up. Bought some Autosol later that night and had a quick go at polishing them, turned out great so Thursday night and Friday day I polished them to a standard I was ok with. Bought some 25mm spacers on Wed, which arrived on the Thursday because of the high offset.

Had tyres fitted on Friday at half 2, unfortunately Nankang ns2s weren't in and on back order so had to go with another set of tyres which did what I wanted if not slightly more, went and picked them back up at 4. Test fit one on the car when I got back and looked sweet! Spent the rest of the day polishing them.

Saturday morning fitted all spacers and wheels ready for Sunday (Fast Show - S'Pod) Saturday I cut some shells down for wheel nuts but ended up giving them a friend to use on show stand at s'pod.

Got to pod to be parked on a field ahaha :bang: Could of entered Auto Glyms show and shine but didn't and just ended up chilling all day with mates on the Dodo Juice stand. Great day, good laugh. Couple of fiats not too many, slammed fiat 500 on baby blue porsche d90s which caught my eye (y) Bought some wheel whores goodies also, air fresheners and a key ring.

Cleaned today and made some use of my touch up pen weeks if not a couple of months after I bought it.

Another picture of polishing up the wheels, ideally I should have split them down and cracked the seal etc but wouldn't have had chance in the time I wanted to do it in. Will get the tool from machine mart when I head past it some time.

Also a picture after cleaning yesterday

Oh yeah forgot about that one, yeah it was a good day, a very long day but good haha! Rained on the way there so everyone on our stand cleaned our cars when we got there then the rain held off for the rest of the day really so it was all good! :) what about you?

Yeah, great day, Apart from setting off at 3:30 AM! Which stand were you on?
I wish I had an extra day or so to have sorted some things out with mine and entered the show and shine, beats a field.
