It'll be faster with him powering it than that DE engine, Doc-weak isn't the word

You can sleep in the exhaust instead of the arches, as I got coilovers today Cheers Bruno for picking them up in your new supervan, matey

Aye, just need to sort something out with wheels instead of spending all day flaring arches.

Anyone want some Advan Sienas? Possibly part exchange for something with an ET of 30 ish that will look good on an S15. Or £700.

I wasn't looking for wider/lower offset wheels for the sake of it, I was looking for something that suited the 180. That is the domain of Taxidori and Cef Drifter

I know what you're saying, but if I do flare them without messing them up (they are rolled already), all the wheels I get will have to be wide/low offset to fill the arch. The offsets for S15s are much higher than 13/14s, so much so that the wheels that were originally on the car are 7X17 ET35 and in line with the arches. I can get some nice wheels for what the Advans are worth, just higher offset.

Look for the Supra wheels. I think they go on a lot easier as the offsets are higher (than S13/S14) as std!

Cool work Mitch, best of luck with it s15s make a nice refreshing change to the eye compared to s13/14's, but still sound like turds lol.

This one doesn't sound like turds at the minute Mike, as it's NA with a cheeky exhaust. It sounds really nice but is as slow as a Corolla, and we can't have that. Hopefully the turd sound will be with us shortly

Matt-good call, I'm half considering that route. Shame the offsets aren't similar to the 13/14s. Must be down to wider track or summat.
