My friend also told me he had some 16's for sale so i was all like yoink! and test fitted one.
16x7jj ET40 so a little close to strut tower but my engineer friend said he can makes me 3mm spacers for free

Update time.
so as its school holidays over here I've been doing 45 hour weeks plus weekend work at my second job. so not much has been done lately. after upgrading my amplifier wiring in my 850 i got bored on my day off. so i decided to test fit my arch flares.
here's a photo

i don't think it'll be moving along anytime soon. spacers are in the works. ten mm all round.

Cheers mark. yea i reckon they are just so much better than the dull coloured phase 3 wheels. My next step is to get the last front wheel off. then install the secondary electric fan. then find some one inch lowering blocks and some spring compressor's so i can fit my coilover rear's

So. have done a little bit lately.
put some interior back together
cleaned up some wiring
changed drivers window mechanism so it actually works now
but my main change is installing negative height adjustment.
note
no lowering blocks used. yet.

Nnot totally sure. brought them off a member on here. that's his car. i test fitted on mine and they don't like the 16's I'm running so don't know if i can use them on the front.
