i must of picked the worst week to move all my stuff for my house move tomorrow..

towed the car to my in-laws today.. had no choice as the move date was bought forward and the car was having none of it, to say towing the car today was a 'brown pants moment' is an understatement.. plenty of snow and i couldn’t see a thing.. a 4x4 would have been nice but i had to make do with my dads Mazda :)

What size are those wheels? 12 or 13 inchers? I can't quite work it out, look slightly like 12's with a massive offset, could be me being stupid though

Also how did the A048's tyres perform sludgy icy roads? looks like they could be entertaining!

Correct 12's with an offset. Good eye *wink*

A048's were loads better than i was expecting.. but wouldn’t recommend them for every day use. lol!

what make are they? I'm thinking of replacing my 12's with some wider ones and they look perfect.

Thanks.

Likewise I like the de-chromed look and the tinted windows.

My first turbo was a clubman a while back which was red and white, must dig the pics out.

It never looked that good tho lol !

Dug this one out she looks a bit battered here...lol



I have some photos when it was first built will have to scan them in and start a new thread.

BTW - I took my buddy VTEC Pete out for a spin this weekend, and even though I am running her in, he gave it a name, the "Brocket"...cause I'm a brocket maaannn, nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah....
