Re: mk3 3dr beater

****, totally forgot about updating this with my teledials on... I'll get right on it!

[shooitt]

Ok so I got my teledials on a few weeks ago and I've sold my Borbet Reps. Used my old 175/55 tyres... Not the desired amount of stretch but they'll do for now. I'll probably get 165/55's cos the rear scrubs like nobodies business!

I still have the washers in the rear for camber and I still have stock front camber maxed out, I've lowered the rear another 10mm (approx [or 10 turns of the coilovers]) and my adapter/spacer specs are 50mm adapter in the front and 45mm adapter + 16mm spacer in the rear..... no problems with this set-up as of yet lol.

Here's some pickies:












Now, the look is totally different to the Borbets but it's really starting to grow on me and the teledials suit the ghetto-ness of my car so well! I'm already looking at new wheels, maybe some 16's... Til then I'm gonna rock these retro dinner plates!!!

Paint them some ridiculous colour. It would suit your car in my opinion.

Looks great otherwise.

I vote smaller adapters and fatter rubber
looking good though

That'd be so sick. Don't tease. Just do this.

Nooo, never!

[Surfpig]

looks pretty cool, are they 14s? or 15s?

paint them gold!

[shooitt]

They're 15's. If I had all the money in the world I would have them professionally painted a nice colour but I was on a tight budget, hence why I reused my old tyres and re-painted them silver myself lol.

[Jarred]

raise the rear 10mm. solve the rubbing issue, then have even arch gaps, which looks better imo!

[shooitt]

Re: mk3 3dr beater

It only rubs on the top corners of the bumper surprisingly. I agree with the even arch gap thing but physically the front is still lower lol.

[Smeeeb]

Roll the hell out of the guards.

Re: mk3 3dr beater

Already done lol, and I pulled out the old angle grinder for the rears.
