haven't got them yet :( hopefully it shouldn't be too much longer though

i'll be getting 17x7 with +37 offset. should fit nicely and fill up the wheel arches a bit more

adjusted the ride height today! it now sits at 532mm front and 540mm rears (measured from the bottom of the rim to the guard).

dampening is set to 26 on the front and 24 on the rears (ie. bone rattling).

no scrubbing on full lock or going over bumps, and it corners beautifully. so i'll leave it as is :)

a few pics of how it sits

i also spent a week repainting all the calipers. the trd aurion colour scheme inspired me, so on the fronts the caliper brackets are black and the caliper assembly itself is red. the rears are completely red.

i took the calipers off completely and stripped them back, as it wanted all the nuts, plates and pins their normal metal colour. i think it makes it look cleaner
