Mwahahahahahahaha!

Going collecting an arch roller tonight to roll and pull some more space in the rear arch and then get my wider spacers on to make the fitment just that extra bit more flush, fronts going to be coming down some more and front fitment adjustments too!

Adam! ^_^

(Olivia's Arosa is now running her 5 Spoke rials too, looks perfect, photos of the pair of them coming soon!)

Since the day I knew about this I have despised your very existance! Especially your bragging to tell me you had them :( but now I have seen the light and they look amazing on your car!! #jealous

Thanks for the comments everyone! Really happy with it, been waiting out for ages to find the right wheel too :)

Had some teething problems, popped the bead on the o/s/f last night when I went to collect the arch roller then my rear tyre caught and then damaged what was already rolled for the baby g60s which took massive chunks out of the wall, only got to bed at half one haha, had some tyre swapping and bead sealing to do at work today lmao!

Freshly powder coated RW ready for some bead sealing goodness :)

Glad my wheels have gone to a good home!

Was hard to sell them, but I needed coilover money for my Abarth ;)

I must find that post where James said he would "never sell"........ ;)

Looking good Adam :thumbsup:

My Abarth needs coilovers, something has to give! :(

Love the wheels so much, suited the car so much! And was the first and only Arosa to do them! But, let them live on!!

And to be fair, they couldn't of of gone to a better home, with the amount of hours Adam puts in maintaining his car, it just makes sense ;) (never thought I was so tempremental)

sexy as **** this motor mate. The wheels make so much difference!

Thanks Chris! It amazed me how much of a difference the wheels have made, looks and feel aswell, feels more lively behind the wheel, not driven it overly hard yet with the tyre popping the bead and what have you but progressing slowly on that one lmao :)

Also, results for best Arosa 2012 have been finalised, managed to achieve runner up which in my opinion is a top result, thank you to everyone who voted for me, gonna have to make me a cheeky little sticker for it to put somewhere haha :)
