ToyotaTech15 Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 Bit more of an update,Firstly some bad news lol, ;) The last weekend i got stuck in the snow so i had to take my front mudflap off so i could get out as it was just digging up snow lol,i went to fit it back on last nite and i turned the wheel to get to the bolts and noticed that my front tyres were competely fooked, not just worn down the whole inside edge on both tyres was through the the wire If i had got stopped by the police i would have lost my license as it is 3 points per tyre, so i got rite on to fix that lol, i replaced both front tyres and swapped the buckled front wheels to the back so it stopped my steering shudder,Also set my wheel alignment as that was what had affected the tyre wear and it was out quite a bit because of me lowering the car.Now on to the good news lol,began buildin up the boot for my glanza rear end the last nite so put up some pics sorry about the poor qaulity pics all i had was my fone lolGary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
