Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Stunning mate! Fitted the tyres today ! Thanks again
Mate

glad your pleased with them matey!



well i have now booked the car in at styledynamics as front passenger side is constantly leaking air, so they need to reseal it, also i noticed when putting wheels on that there are 3 tyres with same rotation! lol so they sorting that out too

  BlackGold 182
Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

naa theyre 15x7j mate, the tyres are 165/50 and with these tyres no problems at all :)

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Ohh cool - Ive just bought some 15x8j, with 195/50's on..ET0, Did you have to grind your rear calipers?

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

yeaa i grinded some off probably about 3mm but im also running 5mm spacers at the rear for better clearance

need to see pics of yours!

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Ohh sweet - Im not picking them up till the weekend, But hopfully I shud have them on by Sunday, I may run spacers depending on how much room I have to play with but we'll see - They have been powdercoated a lairy orange :)

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

are they the ones that were on ebay? and from an mx5? im pretty sure your have to run 5mm spacers at rear because if you take off like 7mm it seems like caliper will be extremely thin

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project
