If so, it's from the same place as my 9N!

It is! Ah shit car fwend. Maybe we should get them together?

Well I'm about to start working on mine and spruce it up so maybe in the future!

They're actually from close to where I live, Darlington. I think...

How low are you sitting here? Looks really nice

Cheers dooode. Er fronts are all the way down and backs about 80 or so i think. To be honest i dont really measure just lower it untill it looks good enough.

I saw you're thinking about running pots man, I had them on before the porsches and ideally need to be all the way down front and rear, which means alot of bottoming out I'm afraid! 15's can be pulled off though imo...

deffo looking at rear adjusters/front helper springs out to run 15s nicely, I'll be trying some pots in the new year too.

PS I bloody love your car in black and white photos Sicx!

Looks like i'll be going for 16's or 17's. I drive on country roads, and bottoming out will probably be a far too regular occurrence if its that low.

I reckon the twists, they look mint!

I'm trying to get some new wheels but I'm really not sure if they will fit they are 7.5j all round, offset et46. They are 5x112 so id need adapters of course but do you think they will fit without sticking out the arches with say 15 or 20 mm adapters?

Id really appreciate any advice you could give me as i dont really fancy buying some wheels and finding they dont fit :lol:

Yeah man i thought twists as well.

Merc wheels I take it? they'd be fine, I'm running 9.5j with 30mm adapters on the rear and all is well.

Here's a pic of some merc segments which are 7.5 et46 with, I think, 15mm spacers

Yeah merc wheels, I've been on a website called willtheyfit.com to have a look at the difference in size from what i have now and what i want. guessing i'll be fine on the back then with 20mm adapters or something. what size are you running on the front and with what adapters? I'm a bit concerned as before i bought my pots i bought cookie cutters and thought they wouldnt fit, turns out they probably would, but i ended up selling them :(

OEM BROOO!! :D Looks sweeettt!!
