11mm in the pic, 2 3s and a 5

Took the 5 off and ran 6mm on the back, 5mm on the front today, had a few issues with rubbing, up a hill in front of a police car

So, after being pulled over and told that my wheels were rubbing (no, were they really? ) I've gone back to no spacers at all until the arches are rolled, then I can try 10mm all round to make sure the new wheels will fit, before buying them.

No fine or producer though, the officer used to have a Golf apparently, and he liked mine, so 'let it go this time'

I think I need to get like that

Got some new numberplates on order, will pick them up and fit them tomorrow.

Still haven't found somewhere to roll the arches, and now I need to get the gearbox fixed maybe, as it's crunchy into 4th, but only from 3rd, not 5th

Got these today,



So I fitted them...

From -





To -





Loads better

Not sure if I've got enough plates lying around though



(I think I have 2 more pairs in the shed too)

Then, I spent absolutely AGES sorting my garage out and putting the free cupboards I got in place to make it into a workshop type place.

Used to look like this -



Now, after all that time, it looks like this





and there's still loads of stuff to move.

Indicators should be here before the end of the week (I hope)
