Be very very carefull with those bolts on the spacers. There ****e! I had some on my stilo and the heads are very small and round easily. Make sure you only use a breaker bar and not a wheel wrench, the heads will round within 10 seconds with a wheel wrench! Was a nightmare!

Cheers for the heads up! Will only need to use them once, probly wont take the spacers off again now :) I think ive got a tool with a rubber lining inside to stop rounding bolts off :)

Hey all! Wheels are back on but the camber shims and spacers arent. Spacers are being returned because my arch was sitting on the wheel with them fitted and was impossible to drive!

Will get pictures up as soon as the rain stops!

Camber shims are for sale on here if your interested

The bloke forgot to tell me that if he removed the bearing it would fall apart and would needed to be replaced, if he told me I would of ordered some so left it in the end :( and spacers would of fitted if I had 165/50's but will happen eventually :)

Wheels look awesome Tom !!

Nice one!! :) When you get abit closer though you'll see the kurbing on each dish and the chunky tyres which doesnt do anything for them :( But will have them sanded soon and some nice stretch :) Just paid for a 2 week holiday though so no spending on the car till after then haha :)
