Ok here's the update:

Wheels:
Brand: Lightweight Team Dynamics Racing
Weight: 9kg/piece

Dimensions:

Front: 8 x 18: offset 20
Rear: 9 x 18: offset 15

Tires:

Front: 225 x 18 x 40
Rear: 255 x 18 x 35

Brand:

Pirelli Pzero: One of the best semi race tire on the market, also used by lamborghini, porsche, ferrari etc............

Suspension: after doing some research we decided to stay with the stock suspension because it is overall very very well balanced, but with the widebody kit we will make it "look lower".

Because the difference in offset (front and back) the spokes in the rear are much deeper what gives a really racy effect !!!

Rear wheel: 255x35


Front wheel: 225x40

here are the pics we took this week:

Mouting of the wheels (right side



After mounting: first view:



Rear:



setting out the base lines of the kit:



Kit to start from (we needed something !!!!!) is the veilside kit, the final widebody kit will have nothing to do with the veilside, it's just the base to start .....







Look at the difference in offsets !!!



Side view:



base for the new fender:



base for the new front: As you can see the kit is pretty sh*tty, and doesn't fit at all !!!



normally in 2 months the car should be done and running again.........

Grtzz

he said it won't look like a veilside after it's all said and done, so i'll give it the benefit of the doubt..
