I would keep the OEM wheels on until you can all 4 wheels on the car.

I hope you get the wheel nuts in time for JAE.

Will take some pics soon, when I get the other two wheels on. Sort of feel like it's cheating if I take a pic of one side of the car, when the other has the old wheels on lol.

The car looks great mate and the wheels are fantastic. From the pics I have the impression that the right rear wheel has a small incline towards the center of the car. Am I wrong?

Thanks.

In answer to your question, I'm not sure. When I fitted the lowering springs, Tony at WIM did say that being lower it could take more negative camber (I hope I'm remembering this right !), so maybe that's it ? Not sure.

Tony was right, I have the same thing on my car since i fitted coilovers. The only difference my wheels have a very small incline towards the outer of the car (not the center), which i think it should be like that and not the other way round. In any way in both cases you must have the smallest incline otherwise you will damage your tires quickly.
