Well, decided not to let my lack of a wheel stop me, and tested some colours and fitment.
Got some REAL first world problems now. The size of the tyres means the ride height has gone up, not great. Also means my arch clearance has gone down, which means more choppy choppy. I'm wondering if there's a way I could extend the rear bump stops to stop the tyres hitting the arches? Is there?
Anyway.. 10J rear, 9J front, colour will be Rover Charcoal Grey Metallic. Haven't painted the front yet as i'm doing it when the other arrives, but for now here's the rears fitted and the track, erm, maybe widened a wee bit![lmao lmao](https://www.306oc.co.uk/forum/images/smilies/legacy/lmao.gif)
Sorry about the shit pictures, won't be digging the camera out until they're all here and on...
Firstly, yes that's a full sized Clubcard, not the mini keyring one. Dish much?

Desperately need to buy some black paint for that exhaust
