Sam used to be one of my mates at secondary school. Still have the odd pint with him now and again (even though I live over the road from his garage). I had 2x 195/40/17's put on a pair of 7.5J's by them recently. They complained loads when I came to pick them up, saying "it's extremely dangerous, we could have been shut down if caught". Pissed me off a bit as i've known them for years and they could've just said no rather than put me down. I went to ATS for the other 2 wheels. Same specs, and same tyre brands (my own tyres too). Same price and no complaints. | |

Must be a fashion, its ridiculous & dangerous" he goes lol Heres what my cars looking like atm. Got a full anni kit waiting to be painted & go on, and all mouldings and door handles colour coded. Then it just needs a bit more lowering. Waiting on some 12mm spacers on the front aswell. | |
