Not gonna do final pics till ive lowered the front next week.

But the 18" Rondell 58s are on. And i think they look great.

Some concerns though:

The dent on my back wheel arch is causing it to rub (shall i try and knock it out with a hammer?)

The front/steering is a bit wayward. Ive had them balanced but the guy said cos there was uneven wear on front tyres id get a bit of a wobble that only new tyres would cure. (Any thoughts?)

Very nice.

New front tyres to cure it, but im guessing they would set you back a lot?

Is it just me or is there a bullet hole through your windscreen in the first pic?!
