Quick update:

 

Rotas fitted with some Maxxis MA Z1's really happy with the fitment.. went with 245/35/19 all round in the end and it seems to be a perfect fit and will allow me to go a little bit lower in the future..

 

still thinking of 10mm spacers for the rear just to bring them flush like the front... we'll see!

Jacked the front up to give it a good clean underneath to get any road salt/remnants of farmyard off the bottom!

 

jetwash and snowfoam inside the arches..

Also tried my friends 19" 10.5j rota grids in Matt black... Tempted to change the colour of mine to gloss black or dark anthracite..

And maybe some 10-15mm spacers for the rear..

Really kind of like it without the plate on too..

Great thread mate and top attention to detail, hope I can get mine looking anywhere near as mint as yours!

 

Cheers mate it's coming along well but still got loads to do.. This weather isn't helping progress any!!

 

Bought what I was told was a GReddy pillar pod for boost/afm gauges and turns out when It came in the post it's a fibreglass copy.. :(

 

Still put it in place anyways to see what it looks like.. Fitment seems okay in fairness but will need smoothing and painting in to the original pillar to look any good

Undecided on what to do with it really.. Either take it to a

Bodyshop for the work or just bin it!
