looks good - nice to see someone knows how to lower a car properly ... have you considered one of those hard canopy's instead of the tarp, they look pretty effective.

Absolutely gorgeous wheels, I'd kill for a set of them on the VT. :p

Trust me a hard lid is the highest priority now!!!

I just hated the 4wd status firstly, and then when it was dumped i wanted wheels. No im happy with it looks wise apart from the tarp.
I sure tried, thats the lowest set of springs I could locate, and im still thinking about getting them compressed about 1/2 an inch or so...

Thanks glad you like the wheels, they are BSA AU-238's make sure you get those not the other ones that look the same, as the ones i have look bigger cause the lip is smaller.

looks much better with the new rims mate.
did you end up lowering it again or is that how it was before?

Thanks mate the wheels sure made a difference, yeah i ended up finally getting hold of the SSSL rear springs, should of seen it on the 17s! Could barely get my foot under the side skirt near the rear.

Finally an update, fitted up 1 3/4" 4into1 pacies and "hi-flow" cats last night.

Sounds like a V8 rather than a 6 with thermos finally :)

Love the wheels mate, and the height of it looks perfect. I was thinking of lowering mine but I go up a few dirt roads every now and then, so it wouldn't be practical.

They definately sound better once you put the headers on, I just put pacemakers tri y's on mine and she sounds so much better.
