well last night my wheels went, 9pm at knutsford services and boom cya later wheelio's, best part is they are going on a totally awesome polo so I am happy with that.

I do have a new set though, not as special, but it will be a challenege to see if I can pull of a set of 15x7 et24 esp with the 195 45 15 tyres

Me going mainstream ? I think not

Think old skool bbs

My car is on 100mm rear and they will fit (I hope)

Need to find some 165 50 15's before thursday and also start working some camber into the rear to get them tucked under the arches

Not really a matter of if, just when.

Anyone any idea's on how to get some camber onto my rear wheels before I go buy some washers and ghetto mod it ?

£20 posted for 2 from regal autosport

02380558636

Came next day aswell

Just so you know, they are not a direct fit, the people that make the shims have never said they are suitable for a corsa b, but with the rear bolt pattern being similar to a mk2 golf I am sure I will find a way to get around that
