no according to the tyre test on mytyres.co.uk :P i was going to get the GSD3's to be honest, but it was a 2 week waiting time, plus they were £20 more for a set, and had heard good things about the proxes, they are definately awesome tyres, if the GSD3's are better then they must have some...

i've got a set of T1-R's, they are awesome!

seems like a good price, im sure a set on ebay went for more than that second hand. what are you doing with your original front seats??

sweet, ideally id want mine that low! anyways, does anyone know more about how low i can go on a susp kit??

whats a rain repellant!? an umbrella?? i use the pink halfords stuff, its as good as any ive used, only complaint is using it on the windscreen and then having the heaters on hot air full blast, it stinks!!

my cousin had a metro with these years and years ago, she always used to blab on about them, was so funny! brings back memories! anyway, how can we clean them?!

lol, did he lower his 110mm or am i making that up?!

yeah i considered that, but how much lower could i take it on the 60mm shocks?? is it like saying a 35mm drop on the standard dampers is ok, but a 60mm drop is too much, therefore i could take a further 20mm off the lowering springs and lower by 80mm overall safely and causing no damage to the...

was contemplating coilovers for my car in the next 2/3 months, but talking to one of my firends about it he said why coilovers instead of a susp kit? basically i want the car to handle better, but i also want it low as fook! so is there a kit i can buy to take me lower than 60mm? or am i...

ok, thanks for the help and advice, i look forward to you fitting them for me in a few months!!

basically i want them fitted and setup perfectly! i see where you are coming from completely, and taking that on board ill probably get you to set up and install!! your over in birmingham arent you?

sweet, how long would you guess at just a set up time? sorry about all the questions, just want to make sure i have enough money to get everything done in one go when i finally get round to buying them!

right, thanks for clearing that up, i understand the camber part about the wheels angle but thats about it as far as suspension set ups!!!

in the pm you said about 3 hours labour, is that for fitting and set up??

thats gone straight over my head!!!

just do something different but classy! ive got a black dynamique, jusy put on some anthracite turbines on mine, love them because they are different from what MOST people do. i like the k-tec angel eyes, wouldnt mind getting some after i get my coilovers, if you go for some get some pics...

£70, that fitting or setup?? dan page said he would fit them for me for £40, so at the minute im looking at £445 for the coilovers + £40 fitting + whatever the setup price will be

im from derby

so if i set aside £750 then that should see them set up exactly how they should be?? more than i thought to be honest but from what i read they are definately worth it! i should be keeping my car for at least another year aswell so i should get the use.

so how much would fitting and the setup be?? how much would i be looking at overall price??including buying the coilovers and fitting, setup and whatever esle is needed??

thanks for the help, just doing a bit of research on it so i know how much i need to put aside! so say £150 for the fitting, how much could i get a set of fk's from john@2modified for? i've sent him a pm but no reply yet.

right then, im hoping by april to have some coilovers, so how much is a reasonable price to have them fitted? also, someone told me it would be best to have the car laser alligned aswell because the whole suspension set up has changed, is this true?? how much would that set me back??

o right!! looked like an awesome car, im hoping he buys one of the houses so i see it more often!

sorry to hijack but are you coming to the skeggy meet next sunday mate??

sorry to hijackmate as i havent got a clue about computers, but is your name your number plate by any chance?! im sure i spotted that in Spondon, Derby looking at some new houses that have just been put up, i drove past you really slowly drooling as you got back in the car!!

not impressed with merc, v6 all the way!

what is it??

finally got them on today, no pics as of yet but ill get some up tomorrow, cant believe the difference in grip the proxes give, on a one of my favourite roads, nice and windy and open with pretty much new tarmac i can take the bends at 10-15mph faster! really impressed with the tyres!

thats an awesome car mate, love it!

my mates got a set of sierra cossie recaro's for sale?! any good?? lol
