You can't polish a turd but you can roll it in glitter

Sorry but I like the Fuchs much better. Are you going to put in a narrowed beam now?

are those the rims off ebay?
7" fronts? what size on them now?
i think they'd look cool blasted, bit like fab's. definitely stepping away from the more mainstream fuchs look, are you?

That look's more like it did you need to put the spacers on the rear again ? Those 70 profile's should be better going though the top end in third too |

Those 70 profile's should be better going though the top end in third too 10mm spacers are on but I may chuck the 5mm on as well they sit nicely on the ghia clearing the spring plate and almost inside the back edge of the wheel arch with the 205 on |
