Glad you changed the chrome mirrors :signLOL:

Thanks mate, yeah I always thought the chrome mirrors were a bit borderline chavy, but these suit the car much better with the new colour scheme now for me.

Thanks mate, shame I was too busy to have a good look at yours and chat a bit more, I managed to just finish those 2 cars in the end :jumpmove:

Are your Mercedies C63 wheels staggered widths and offset? I'm looking at sets on eBay and can only find staggered sets so wondering whether it's worth trying to bide my time and get 4 that are 19x8" ET45 rather than having wider rears but I'm not overly fussed.

Yeah they're 8J ET45 fronts and 9J ET54 rears, with a 225 tyre and a 5mm spacer they fit perfectly. With an 11mm (as low as mine is) they rubbed and with no spacer they're quite close to the suspension on the inside but still cleared safely. I thought about trying 8mm spacers a few times but I'm pretty sure it'll rub.

Is that a 225 tyre and 5mm spacer all round? Or just up front to clear the TTRS brakes?
