I quite fancy your wheels, I did have some 15x8"s but they were old skool design without any brake clearance, epic dish though!
Would be for my ZX which aint going anywhere near as low as this 306 :p

ilove the wheels but there not wide enough for my liking want 8j up front but want them tucking the rim and atleast 9j at the rears possibly 9.5j so i can have the rim poking

UPDATE
fitted the new black masks today which look 10x better than the s**t I had on there, glad there going in the bin! unless someone wants a set? going for free?
while I was at work (on my day off) helping my college lower his lexarse, I got our apprentice to clean the wheels which to be fair he actually did a pretty good job ![Smile Smile](https://www.306oc.co.uk/forum/images/smilies/smile.png) anyway once that was done had to wait for him to finish working on the customers car after the lexus was done, so got the wire brush out and some sand paper and cleaned all the muck of the cam covers and inlet manifold, came up pretty good after half an hour. so going to keep going with the sand paper and see if I can fully polish them
![[Image: 1902347_10201192667605513_714068919_o_zpsd6c51671.jpg]](http://i1236.photobucket.com/albums/ff441/big543/1902347_10201192667605513_714068919_o_zpsd6c51671.jpg)
once the lexus was done

engine: didn't get a before picture as I forgot but it was pretty dirty
air filter was off due to going home and the roads were starting to flood and didn't want to risk another engine, better be save than sorry.
starting sanding down my ecu and battery covers as I stupidly painted them white, so there going satin black as will the spoiler when I get paint soon, started wiring in my sub but ran out of time. hopefully sunday will be a good clean as its minging
