Slightly lowered, and a wheel refurb

[han519]

I have lowered my 172 Cup by 30mm and its had a wheel refurb.. let me know what you think, and what should be next (in your opinions) clean plates, are on the list.
WARNING: very poor quality photos.. I apologise. Will try and get better ones at the weekend.

Before:

After:

Let me know thoughts... My brothers reckon its hardly any lower, but think its just closed the gap slightly. Dont want it slammed. And wheels, look much better now, not bad for £100 from a local man who does refurbs from home.

Love silver cups, I think it would benefit from a fresh set of plates though. What springs have you fitted?

Thought 172 Cups were all blue :S

Just some GMAX ones, til funds allow for coilovers probably. Yeah I will get some fresh plates as soon as its pay day

haha me too, I considered going anthracite with the wheels, but didnt wanna ruin it. Think I'll keep any changes subtle. possibly a caliper paint.. undecided on colour as yet

Wise decision going with an original colour I'd say! Looking good

Not entirely sure what's under the tbh, it's a conversion of some kind. It goes some. His other brother has the same kind of thing, but has just converted it... Can run at 450+ apparently but is gonna run it at 400ish so he says
