It's a love story
I saw her under a tree. Asked my cousin how much i could buy her. We agreed on a price OK fine i think. (I open the bonnet & fall in love instantly)I drive her to my house(coupe) and all the elderly people are always asking to pay more for her even in her poor body state and i ask them why
1. Petrol - she doesn't like frequenting filling stations.
2. The body shape is always current. Man i mean all those nice curves.Look at all the recent Hyundais

Hey Man, like 5 spacers and 8 to 10 cm studs is going to put you in the cemetary.

This is definatly not the way to go to achieve what you want.
You need to get different offset wheels, I have 205 x13s on the front of mine no spacers no sweat.

Or look at getting an engineering shop to make you some bolt up spacers,where studs are built into the spacer.
If you look up wheel adaptors on Ebay there are often guys selling exactly that sort of thing.


Anyway i have engaged an engineering firm to manufacture suitable spacers for me

Please help me i have a problem with my 205/50/13 tyres. I have no problem with the rear as such but my main problem is the front. I bought some longer studs but are not long enough to accomodate like 5 spacers. I have seen a few dattoes with wider rims and 'am thinking how they acheived that. If there are indeed longer studs like say 8 - 10 cm or some alternative spacer please let me know. By the way the car is a 1200 coupe.

Ain't a mechanic as such but last time the box was opened the mech showed me some pieces of metal said they are called docks (like i said spelling might be wrong) If you look at a synchroniser you will find about three pieces of metal that hook onto the synchroniser about three per synchroniser. The problem with the box is it keeps on getting jammed in gear 3 or Reverse

Been having lots and lots of problems with my gear box, now a friend of mine who owns a datto suggested i remove the docks (sp) from the box. Says he done the same to his and is no longer giving any problems.

? your opinion
