After being down in melbourne i picked up my new (newest) wheels and had them fitted up.
Thanks very much to Tim for finding them, picking them up, and helping me fit them)
drove the car back to b'town with massive reverse rake and 4 finger gap width between the tyre and arch.
Lowered the front as far as i could go on the coilovers without taking the helpers out or using spacers.
Gave the car a quick wash tonight and went out for some photos, i left the tyre shine off so it was easier to see the wheels for photos...
Photos aren't great... but you get the idea.
I'm not going to slam it on the 19s at this stage, but will be lowering it all round some more (2cm or so) and spacing the rear out a bit
Also received some centre caps in the mail on friday... hopefully some ideas on whats to come.
I'll let you work out whats new and whats old...
... and no, i promise 'koya wheels' has nothing to do with it... thats just what was on them when i got them

Soooo the wheels got pulled off for a massive cleaning session... around 3-4hrs in total. took some photos, please excuse the cars paint... ill be getting to that shortly.
upfront proper fitment. Just needs moar lows
rear brakes: ... lol!
ignore the dust thats already landed on them. had lawn mowers and leaf blowers in operation just after i finished.
Cheers Tim,
Moar lowwws. rear can go another 1.5 inches , front is not going much further unless i pop the old worn mounts back, remove the locking spindle, or start spacing out. I my hottunings
Thought this looked kind of cool while i was changing wheels. Some love to VWW:
