Good stuff!

I might see you there so, Robert. At the moment it looks to be dry, but sure that can change quickly.

I tried to find you Robert, asked a few guys with the 5s, but none where you!
Was a mad fun day, a good 5 turnout. I had great runs with John (black 5) and guys in the white one!

Here she is pre track:

Went pretty well, brakes were overheating a tad, so had to take a measured approach!

Very nice car ! The white steels look great - really retro.

Many thanks, they are from an Opel Astra. 15x6J with ET49 (boooooo); and they are heavy.

Ah you'd have to expect some weight with the steels ! I guess an alternative would be the
4x100 VW ones for a lower offset (ET35 ? not sure) but spacers would do the same thing with
your existing wheels.

Yeah, this is true.

I know a 05 Opel Astra has a 15x6.5J with ET35. Unfortunately when I was getting these wheels from the dismantlers, they only had 1 of those, so I had to settle for the ET49.
