Tas or -xa0sx

are either of you running weitec coilies? Have you removed the rear adjustable cups?

My new wheels look crap because the back is too high.

Xa0sx is on weitech gts I think. I'm only on budgets I've got the adjusters removed

Yeah, Weitec GT's with both the adjuster parts removed (the adjuster itself and the cup it sits in). It's been like that for 10,000+ miles with no problem. Lots of people do it but the usual safety-nazi's act like it's the end of the world by removing them.

Phil - my sig shows weitecs with adjusters removed. They just had to go. Even with the adjusters on the lowest possible setting, the car sat far too high.

Whats holding the spring in place then? Surely the spring will just fall out if raised up?

Not happy with mine:

Dude i like that stance, its not in that awkward stage of not just tucked and not over low without tuck!

Looks good to me the way it is

Remove the adjuster by unwinding it from the cup. the cup & thread remains in place and the spring sits around the remaining threaded metal - holding it in place.

difficult to explain, i shall try to go get a pic....

sorry for poor pic, but as you'll see there is no green adjuster there.

You can remove the cup, but that's where things can start getting a little risky as the spring will be freed. it'll gain you another 5mm tho

Please show us more Phil....

Just seen some pics on another forum - looks awesome mate

A lot of hard work has clearly gone into the wheels, and the end result is stunning

Look like BMW splits?

Yer there BMW RC041 17" 7.5j et41 205/40 on the rear and 195/40 on the front using 15mm adaptors all round. Plan is to get them with 8.5j on the back and wider adaptors. But im happy with them so far. Will deffinatly remove the adjusters from the back then. Ive got a build thread on tdisport.co.uk but ill put a few iphone pics up to please you ;-)

Those BBS wheels look perfect mate. Probably one of the nicest sets of wheels I've seen on the fabia. The silver 7 spokes on the black fabia also look great!

Thanks means alot. Sits better with a set of TT wheels in the boot.

Lol I know exactly what you mean

That red one is a beauty!

Are they the 328i wheels? if they are i wish i kept my set as i gave them away!

Yeah they are - BBS RC041?

Not too many red VRS's so thought I'd add mine.
