Ive lowered it 40mm mate, it sits ok imo and i dont like the look of slammed cars tbh, i just want a revived new look

Thanks again

 

[MrTom]

Ive given the car a good clean today and corrected my front and rear lights, they wernt very bad to begin with but you can see the difference...

Before...







after...











They look much clearer now, almost as good as new

Thanks for looking.

 

[MrTom]

I ordered a new set of these today in crystal titanium 16"...



The same ones that are fitted to this golf to give you an idea...



Cant wait to get them on!

To be perfectly honest, I feel like I might have to ban you.

Posting porn is not permitted, and it makes me feel like my poor 182 is inferior.

Pure utter sex. What a stunning 182. Easily my favourite one now.

Agree. I think it will keep it looking cleaner as thats the look you look like you've gone with (if that makes sense). Starting to feel like that the whole dark wheel thing is being over-played.

Thinking of going silver myself...

Lovely car mate.
The wheels will look ace on it too.
Had a set on my old 172.


Not the best picture but gives you an idea.

Wrist hurts now

Ive received my oz ultraleggeras today, so i went to my local tyre fitter and had my tyres swapped over, theres only a few quick pics as my car is dirty and has a lack of tyre gel etc so ill get some better ones up tomorrow after a good clean, the wheels and tyres in the pics have the grease stuff they use to fit the tyres too so ignore that...













Overall i am very happy with how they look, they sort of make the car look wider and more squat for some reason too.

Thanks for looking

 

[Foxspeed]

quite like the look :thumbup1:

 

[MrTom]

A few more crap pics until which ive taken...









Ill get some better ones tomorrow
