5mm spacers ? These look like Laguna wheels to my untrained eye...

Is the offset different then ? You expecting troubles ?

 

[Foxspeed]

oohhh nice

 

[Gordini]

Wow mate those look great! Top job and let's see some pics of them on the car

 

[Pav]

thanks guys...will put them on and see but there should not be any issues..its just a precaution in case they dont clear the calipers...

 

[Jimmy]

They look brilliant Pav, good job mate! Kudos to you for doing it DIY too!

 

[Pav]

thanks again..let's put the tyres on and have some fun time on a track...

 

[Chris]

So they old Ad08s are going on these then?

 

[Pav]

yeap Chris..still some life in them...

 

[Pav]

a bit of a fun today after work...fitted Ferrodo 2500 on the front and Laguna Silverstones with ad08 tyres on..went for a quick drive and all seems ok..the pads are great btw..much sharper than my old mintex 1144 once they are warm...
had to fit the 5mm shims on the front as the calipers were in the way and to my luck i managed to chip some paint off
well will have to repair that after Blyton...just some pics:










as always thanks

thanks lads..i am quite pleased with it..not happy about the chipped off paint but that will get fixed after Blyton...good job i ordered the shims too..rear seats are being removed too to make the car a bit lighter...hope all goes well on Sunday

I've never tried caliper paint but is it a bit like gloss you use at home for wood/metal? If so it may blend in ok...
