Merv130 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 So I have been quite busy and the car was neglected for a while, it seems that my tracking was off from when I lowered it and I ended up with slightly worn tyres They weren't too far away from slicks I got a set of Continental sport contact 5s ordered and fitted and they are brilliant, best tyre I have had on any car I have owned I also purchased a set of Eibach 15mm spacers few shots before During fitting ( I know the drums need painted, its on my todo list!!)

Merv130 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 and few shots after I think they might need spaced a bit more to be perfect, but they are a lot better than before. I then got a day off for paddys day and did a quick detail. Detaring agent at work, shows how much crap got stuck onto the paint work over the winter Clayed and with a layer of wax on Best I could get on an phone 4 camera 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merv130 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 I also removed the rear fiesta badge and this shot gives a good view of the spaced street packs Quite a small mod, but I got my key insert carbon dipped to match the interior. Before After Lastly I swapped out the top brake light. before and after I think it suits the car a lot more. Thats how the car sits for now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loz Cheung Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 the brake light is definitely an improvement and i agree - that final rear view manages to fully show the effect of those spacers! Nothing to do with the spacers themselves or your photography skills in the other pics, its just that how cameras can make things look 2D most times :) Coming along nicely B) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scousa Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I feel your pain with the tyres bud I managed to eat a brand new set in just over two months. Where did you go to get the tracking done? As two local garages I've been have said it's too low for their equipment so I was planning on trying rsr next Sent from my GT-I9300 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you go to get the tracking done? As two local garages I've been have said it's too low for their equipment so I was planning on trying rsr next Sent from my GT-I9300 using Ford OC mobile app Two months! christ my old ones lasted 4k miles from new with the previous owner and 7k since I got it and lowered it. Wouldn't like to be forking out for new continentals every two months!! I haven't got it done yet, I'm changing a few things that may effect it again so waiting until i'm finished messing about until I get it done, possibly the end of the month. Not sure where to take it yet, I know the place where I got my tyres, mcgeown in mallusk do a computer 4 wheel alignment for £30. Someone told me to go to a place in banbridge, but they are £80 to get it done. Can't see where the £50 price difference comes in tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Yeah >_> luckily I get brand new tyres at cost price. I think the price depends on the machinery they use but tbh at the moment I'll happily pay £80 to get mine done haha.

Sent from my GT-I9300 using Ford OC mobile app Flip I should have talked to you earlier, could have hooked a ford owner up! haha I went and checked back, don't know where i got banbridge from. I was recommended jb autos in tobermore or russle shields in castledawson. Probably wouldnt be far off £100 for me once I factor in fuel etc. edit I see your from London so this information is probably useless to you, I thought you were local to me.
