    Front, Rear and full pics of 14x6 165/60R14 et42 with 5mm front spacers making front et37.

    Please forgive the knackered wheels hahaha.

    I plan on posting pictures of the new suspension, wheels etc when they arrive and when they are fitted as a comparison.

    Here's mine how it arrived. Wheels are 14x5.5 ET 42 (I think) tyres 175/50, and only just clear the suspension on the front

    I'm now using the 13x5.5 ET 35 trackday wheels and tyres (AO48's) from my AZ-1. 185/60R13 rear and 175/50R13 on the front (they work out fairly close to the standard diameters) Not the 'look' a lot of people would go for but they work very well

    That still leaves us with not enough thread to nut and I forgot to ask whether they can remove material from the face where the nuts seat, but I would imagine not. So long studs might be in order.

    Thought I'd better clear up that mis-information!

    Everyones wheels are looking good!

    For those in America what about these wheels:

    They look real smart, and come in 13x5 and 14x5.5 fitments. If only I could get them in the UK.
