Thanks mate,

I have bought some BBS 15x7J rare alloys but looking for good place to refurbish them and I'm buying new Nangak NS2 165/50/15 tyres.

This should drop the car and also will drop it on the coils. But I can't go to low because I'm using my car on daily basis :)

Soooo?! That doesn't mean anything, haha. ;)

WEEKEND IN THE GARAGE

Hi guys,

I'm back after a weekend in the garage but with excelent result.

What I have done:

Pollen filter

Fuel filter

Brake pads and cleaned/sanded disks

Wishbouns with all bushes

Front top mounts on the suspension.

Tracking and camber

An advice for everyone when you decide to fit new coilovers.

Always buy new top mounts as there is a big difference in the height of old one and new one.

My suspension was ok when it was fitted but after couple of months started knocking and moving (car puling left or right)

I have checked them and compared to new one and it was 7mm difference in the size.

Do not forget to do your tracking when you changing wishbones (my result before +3,53 and after +0.10)

I can tell you that the car is now sitting on the road and it's not knocking, moving and it's pleasure to drive it.

I do not have any pics (everyone knows how this parts look like) but if you need to ask anything just let me know.

yellow FTW! the details look good dude, i like where this is going! keep up the good work!

Looking forward to the new rims. I think 45s would be a better tyre size though as it matches the radius of the OEM wheels. Are you going for any stretch?

They are BBS RD 15x7J with all 4new center caps and now they are waiting for refurbishing in BJV Engineering garage.

Diamond cut + original color repainted this is the way I like it.

They are back next week and I can't wait to see them.

Hope you like them same as me :)

Here you go..my new BBS RD :)

I would like to put on them 165/50/15 Nangaks

What do you think?

i'm sure the wheels will look good once the pictures up load :)

Wheels will look good - something a little different but still BBS! I would still go for 45s though!

I think that 165/45/15 is too much stretch.

Most people on tyrestretch.com are using 165/50/15 on this size of rims.

I'm confused now which one go for.
