Wheels look as though they fit perfect.

What make are the wheels? Size and offset? They look good but that's a lot of a stretch, they must be 205s on the rear?

Will look good once it's a bit lower with the ASM bumper we will be twins, i might have to change it up a bit

I take it you're going to drop it into the weeds and really tuck the top of the tyre into the arch? I quite like the look when done right on a show car but just couldn't imagine living with it like that as a daily driver

More pics required once its lowered

Wouldn't that be an MOT failure?

Wheels sticking further out than the bodywork.
