im not a fan of tinted windows, I like the simple euro look of a daily lowered and small wide wheels and that's it really, among other little things ..the sticker I think I might keep for a little longer but I am getting bored of it now, just waiting on some custom ones! . Me and some mates are Gerri g some massive rear window stickers

And MISC, I do rag my car now and then but not much anymore due to driveshaft poppage but that has never happened to me, yet lol..

 

[TJEToates]

Sits well.

Only things that ruin it for me are the got stance sticker and the lcr splitter.

lcr??.. And im not sure on the splitter really, just got it to make the front lower as the gp goes up at the front! ..im looking at different splitter atm actually

But whats the spec on the wheels then? Size/Width/Offset and tyres?

 

[TJEToates]

And yeah ur corsa wins!.. My Clio was even the ECO campus version LMFAO

Quite like the rolled arches, suits the rest of the car well.

Maybe I'm turning into a euro fanboy but I actually like the sticker as well

 

[TJEToates]

And thank you!..I didn't go for much flare just the lip roll and I like my sticker aswell

Is there anything official about the rear bumper being illegal mate? I don't get why it is tbh.

Apparently to this one policeman, since I have never been stopped for this before. He thinks that it is illegal for my tyre to be showing so much at the back of the car, he says as the wheels stick out soo much and the bumper tapers that makes it illegal and I would get 6 points, license gone . I know the law around this and you rim can stick out a maximum of 30mm and aslong as the tyre is covered from prone it okay, but now I have to follow this one policmans believes now, so I don't get points..Brilliant!..

 

[Lal B3N]

How the heck you managed to get 17x8 et 30 on the front?

I run 17x7 et 35 and they literally sit on the edge of the arch, im running a 205/40 too. Any more on mine and im sure it would stick out the arch.

It's rubbish anyway, grandes with standard wheels on still show the tyre from the back bumper..

^ exactly what I said to him, now for the winter I have my old wheels on and with 15mm spacers, they show slot of tread at the back, I bet I never get stopped!.. And Lal B3N I think the difference will be that both our rims will stick out probably close to the same but mine will go further back as from the extra inch, and then the stretch of being wider pulls the tyre under the arch

Ah yeah that makes more sense. I didn't think of it that way. Nice one anyways!
