Out of interest what size offset have you moved from - to? Wheel sets are extremley expensive. The cost you quoted is the same for my 194Ms

Scary prices

Previous setup:

Front: 18'' 8.5j +45 with 225/40/18 Potenza's
Rear: 18'' 9.5j +40 with 255/35/18 Potenza's (using a +25mm spacer)

New setup:

Front: 18'' 8.5j+25 with 245/35/18 RSR 595's
Rear: 18'' 10.5j +12 with 285/30/18 RSR 595's (no spacer)

The fronts should now be sitting flush with the stock arch line, but also thin enough not to cause rubbing issues on full lock.

Rears have eliminated the use of a spacers (which I never liked) and will push the wheels out another +10mm so should be close enough to the arches without destroying them over bumps.

Whole setup came to about a grand, but my selling my last set helped soften the blow.

Pretty mad that my last set went to a supra in Africa of all places, never thought they would make it one piece

m3 no m8s car wash :( May have to have a trip to Kwik Fit in the morning now, A/C appears to not be working anywhere near as well as it should be so £50 for them to see if it "just needs a regas innit" or if they can't do it then a refund and off to BMW for repair!

Also everyone remember we are meeting an hour earlier at 11AM I definitely didn't nearly forget myself...
 
Last weekend was epic, next weekend shaping up to be rather toasty. This weekend, when the meet is planned for?

You couldn't make this up...
 
Which pub is Lunch at as I'll be able to pop in for food before having to scoot back off?
 
I am an epic fail. Off to Russia in the early morning. Will have to link up with you chaps at the
next meet in July. June is a busy month for me in and out of the country like a yo yo.

No worries Alex, see you another time :)
 
Well that was fun and the weather came good in the end. Followed a nice old Aston on the way home as well be driven correctly.
 
Thanks all, another good meet, lycra aside.

I regret not turning my TC off Vox, I was aiming to give it the full beans away once that Merc turned off, but TC said no...
 
Thanks all, was a good day :) noise from the back of the Celica was worse on the way home though, need to take the disks off and have a looksee :p May be a wheel bearing... Stupid Toyota wheel bearings... :p
 
After a slightly underwhelming start from pub 1 to pub 2 using the same route as the Tour de Surrey, the meal and the drive back were fantastic!

Again my apologies to poor Badger in his convertible who had to sit in my numerous clouds of unburnt fuel whilst being deafened every time I booted it, sorry! :D

I'll stick a few pics up later too.
 
Thanks for coming all, small crowd but a good crowd :cool:

I did think your acceleration there was a bit less than expected :p
