haha you'll be able to see the grooves on your chassis leg if its driveshaft! yours looks pretty slammed so i reckon it will be :lol:

try my 16x9 Brock B1 on it too ;)

cant really see with the light, will have to wait till morning to find out, it happens really refquently, i always put it down to its just the sound of the wheel hitting the top of the arch or something, didnt really bother me, but is it likely to cause much damage?

nah, it'll eventually (after about 6 months!) cause the chassis to wear away a bit where its catching. it wont snap any driveshafts as diesel ones are bigger/fatter than petrol ones :)

:lol: so that would explain that after 7 months of owning the car its starting to occur less frequently

Cheers for the help though dude :p

And get those rs's on.......want to see what they will look like as I'm trying to hunt a set down :ninja:

they're really good tbh. hold the road well, not to stiff, not even that bouncy really. I recommend you get them dude! cheap as chips, free postage from Belgium and only took 6 days to come (over a bank holiday too!)

That's gunna look soo good with the rs's on!

Thanks for the comments guys! i'm only in college a couple of days a week now so I'm gonna crack on and get the BBS's done ASAP :)

yo andy, what specs you planning on running for the rs's ? subtle staggering please :)

I'm just gonna keep em standard for now mate so 15x7 ET38 all round. fronts will tuck slightly so i'm gonna space the rears out by 10 or 15mm :)

thats going to look stunning on the BBSs :nod::thumbsup:

awesome andy :) really looking forward to seeing it. spaced 7.5 rears could look nice and a bit less obvious than just taking the rears straight to 8 i guess. Keep it up!
