Reminds me of when I first got my old one. Right wheels and drop and it can look good.

damn , ok cheers , what wheels do you advice for a breadvan ? i dont really know much about them tbh

Anything more than 6.5" wide starts to become a bit of a squeeze. The biggest I managed to get on was 8s and that took a hell of a lot of pulling.

nice, dips on the washer bottle one, its going to be toasty-est

Looks like a nice base.

I had my coupe on 80/60, I'm so glad I did because otherwise i would always have kicked myself for not going lower first time round.

Enjoy it

Hows the sunroof?
