Hugh difference... they need new tyres and tracking etc (at the moment handles like s**t) but for now... no more photoshopping them on... Suits your car mate. Had these on my car ages ago in 16s. One thing i liked about them was that they were easy to clean. Have the same problem with the tracking mine needs to be done again, hit a kerb few days ago.

Cheers dude! ... definitely easy to clean ... I hope the new tyres and tracking will bring it together, although the old rim looked crappy the ride was so comfortable and consistent(didnt have to worry about the steering wheel pulling to one side all of a sudden). what you reckon black grills? The kerb is no ones friend going to keep my distance from now! Edited August 5, 2013 by JayP07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayP07 Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 The bypass definitely worked for me too... but when that disappeared I still had one problem to solve... glad it worked for you the airbag light is a real pain!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
