Well, after two rather late nights, the steels are finally on.



Tuesday we fitted the tyres at a mates house, with barely any tools (stretch is dificult without a bead cheater)



This was the stretch on the front

The rears were even more of a pain in the arse, took a good 3 and half hours to fit all the tyres!

Got them balanced yesterday and headed to a mates for work to commence

Got rake?



Bolted the fronts straight on no problem, the rears however, no chance!



Luckily i'd ordered this already

this was soon welded in place

Adjusted it so the beam was central, had to shorten it alot! Put the car back on the floor, arch still just sat on the tyre.



Luckily we found a bag of old mini bushes and after a load of different combinations, the back was raised a bit. Was dark by this point so no pictures of the bodges lol!



Then i stopped off on the way home to grab a few pics

that front fitment looks amazing

Could you reshape the back arch again now you have the panard rod?

Yeah sits so nice considering i havent even fiddled with it yet, do need to get the camber set up though.

And, after driving to work today, i do need to do someting with the arches as is scrubs more than it did on the 13s aha!

Not a stance lover but yes, this looks pretty cool! Much better with the steelies!

Cheers dude!

That is some serious poke!

I love it :) good work :D

James

Yeah glad i went for 195/45s now, cheers mate!

They look fucking sick man.

And it looks clean!

Its made me start liking the car again not gonna lie!

It does look clean in pictures, gutted about the state of the bodywork tbh :/

Where did you buy the thing for the panhard rod?

This car looks so mean!

Youve really pulled them wheels off dude well done!

eeerm, I it was off of rallye design, forgotten what the website is, was like 12.50+vat iirc, a lot easier to do than the conventional method too!

Cheers! Although the headlight tints gonna have to come off soon as now its not reverse raking I really cant see anything at night!

I do want to fiddle with the stance and maybe get it sitting a touch lower, but for now, im happy!

Finally fixed the boot trim!

that looks mint dude!








Looking fucking amazing mate and loving the white on white! :)





Cheers lads!





Looks awesome bro im looking for some steelies as i hate me alloys what ones fit the starlets besides standards? Do other manufacturer steelies fit our pcd?





Theyre 4x100 so most 4 studs apart from ford and Peugeot/citroen





awesome mate!



u need to get a livesports spoiler, TTE front lip and a glanza rear bumper and this would be n/a stance perfection





What does a livesports spoiler look like? TTE lip I don't really like, plus it wouldn't last long, and as ive said before I think just the glanza bumper on an n/a looks odd



Need to find myself a nice flexible splitter next!
