    cheers for the awesome feedback it really makes this project worth while

    well

    i had 17x7's on there to begin with and the guards were rolled previously

    im running 16x7 with ET35 and toyo T1R 195/45 R16 tyres

    i cant bring the back out anymore as you can see in the pictures my tyre is well under whe wheel well and will definetly rub

    also i am not sure if i will be running guard flares or not... any suggestions and opinions??
    if i run the flares i will run the gti sidestripes aswell

    if not i will go flare-less... no gti side stripes but side moulding

    ohh BTW rayray if your reading this i just recieved the black/gold BBS caps they look yummy!!!!

    gotta wait for the other style bbs caps now!!

    hehe

    It doesn't make any difference whether the trim's are fitted or not when your rolling the wheel arches.

    Just mean's you've got to take them off to roll the lips & then trim the arch trims back.

    Also with the trim's fitted you don't have be as careful with the paint. Get's covered up.




    Looking bloody awesome Dom. Plenty of room left in the arches to.

    With a 35 offset you shouldn't have any scrubbing issue's ever, unless it's belly scrapping!!

    Can't wait to see more progress on this build
