    Very nice, like them a lot.  Were they from the GB?

    Also what colour is your car?

    Cheers

    Cheers guys,

    They are 18's. They came from the uk, car is canyon red, no idea how much its lowered by, i just kept saying to the bloke, keep going, keep going, that will do, i need it usable to get the jet ski gear in the boot.

    Canyon Red eh...  So that's what mine would look like with LMs Big Smile

    How are you finding the Revo on the AGU?  I'm toying with either a Revo or a CC remap at the moment, and CC is winning purely on cost alone at the moment with the 30% forum discount - would be good to hear how the Revo is on the AGU first hand.

     I do have spacers but with the heavy stuff i sometimes have in the boot i dont want it to catch on the liners as they are pretty close.

    As for the revo, my personal opinion is i couldnt fault it, i had the area manager come out and do mine, and the difference straight up was amazing, obviously i dont feel as quick now as im used to it, but it is still great and never made the car skip a beat

    That's what I like, precision tuning :)

    Car looks lovely, those rims are always gonna do it. I was only saying to myself the other day I haven't seen many modded ones that colour.
