On another note, Citroen C2 GT's come with VLMs and they are a 4 x 108 fitment

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Good progress. Did you fit the other brake line I made before I left?
That 11mm, can we swap it for a 10mm? It might get used then

No the other brake line isn't done. I would like to get them held properly and make sure the lengths are correct, fit and bend as its routed. Otherwise there will either be loads of slack or it'll be in the way of stuff. There's not loads of room behind the dampers. Wouldn't mind reviewing where the rear goes through the bulkhead as well.

They can be shortened easy enough, so get them routed and leave any slack and i'll make a new end tomorrow. I'll get some p clips in a bit while i think on.

Can't really route without the clips. Still got the other damper to do and the exhaust so I'm not short of work.

In that case, just get a short length of rubber hose and join it back together. Won't need jubilees as it is only vapour.

Those VLMs on the Citroen are 17", that will be why they look so good.
Hope 15s don't look feeble in comparison 
I keep telling myself they're lighter and tyres are cheaper!

Yeah they're aftermarket on the Compomotive web site. And lovely. I'm actually gutted I didn't go larger.
