Anyone know where to get some 13 inch tires with a low profile? i want something with less than a 60mm profile

this needs to be a sticky thread haha

if you buy another car and have an open drive policy register the vtec in another persons name and put tax and nct on it you can drive it with out insurance.

I'm only thinking about it at the minute. prob wont happen for ages if it ever does. will get loads of research done for now anyway

sounds simple enough. is there any problems with the wiring loom? i was thinking if i was doing the swap for a metro turbo i'd bring the wiring loom and brake across too.

if you dont mind me asking how difficult was the metro conversion? was it crazy money?

brillaint if i wanted to fit say 6 inch wide wheels now would i have to cut the wings?? sorry just trying to do all the research before i get my self into a hole haha

is it possible just to fit 10 inch wheels over 7.5 inch disks with out mods??

heavens above

are the brackets that hold on the steering colume easy to get?? if not whats the best way to sort out those stupid sheer bolts nut things?

if you dpnt mind me asking what arches and alloys do you have on it??
