Moley Welcome to the club , nice to see some more Scottish members.

Any plans for the car ??

Not a lot to be honest.

- going in for a service,cambelt and water pump in next week or two.
- front bumper needs painted as the previous owner scuffed it and will probably get the bonnet painted at the same time as its got a fair amount of stone chips.
- As usual the wheels are fecked, however I bought 6 wheels off ebay so gives me a set to reburbish, can swap them on the refurbish the other set (I hate scabby wheels)
- TTE springs to lower it a bit
- TTE backbox
- GROM kit
- Would like bigger wheels but need it to be comfy getting to work everyday.

Seen these and think they would look crackin painted silver

I know lol ****** complicated.
to be honest I'll probably keep the standard ones on or maybe swap to the 18inch 6 spoke ones.
I use the car everyday and think the 19's would be too comprimised for comfort

They look crackin on Moley.

Really thought they'd be a bit of a squeeze.
Do you need to run coilovers or anything to get them on??
or are they just bolt on...as long as you get the correct offsets and stuff??

Cheers
