Specs of those wheels?

Thanks! Wheels are VMR V710 Matte black 19x9,5 ET45 with Michelin PSS 255/30/19 tires and 3mm spacers in front.

Those wheels look nice indeed!

i'm looking at work D9R wheels with 19x9.5 +38 and have found that most people on this forum recommend +35 to avoid rubbing, what i wanted to know was whether you have any rubbing issues with your 19x9.5 +45 (+42 with spacers) wheels?

Hi there,

As Kev (Rev555) once said to me: "The trouble with offsets is sometimes they vary between manufacturers..."

I reckon it's better to go with a higher ET and then play around with spacers. At the back it will be fine and you can play with camber, at the front you may need some spacers to clear the strut.

The Work wheels would look very nice on a Roc!

Love this! So much inspiration . Wheels look great, it's nice to see some wide wheels with wide tyres instead of stretched, looks very purposeful.

Wintermodus...

I've sent you a PM...[/quote][/quote]

voor mij ook aub, en waar heb je deze geplaatst?

It's all about the details...

As the Frozen Grey was starting to fade, it was time for a new wrap. As I like the Grey-Black color scheme, I went with the Dark Matt Grey from 3M.

The license plate holder disappeared as well. The front is way more mean looking now in my opinion!

On what period of time did the wrap fade? And where did u let it wrap?
It looks really nice! Bad ass car

It started after about 1,5 year on the rear fenders, the hood and the roof. Particularly on the parts that are exposed to rain. It's a common problem with the Hexis wrapping film, the 3M should last longer.

finally got around to install the work wheels, loving the dish on the wheels and it doesnt rub either!

One of the nicest Rocci's I've seen, great colour, height and rims!

Looks good! Just needs a little drop in my opinion...

awesome, big fan of matte! is it tricky to keep clean?

Not tricky at all. Just don't use a pressure washer. No need of waxing or claying, although I use Swissvax Opaque to protect the wrap a little bit more.

Love the car mate and very tasteful mods

Have you upgraded the clutch?

Not upgraded the clutch, would like to go with Stage 2+ but don't want to spend that much money for 10-15 hp extra...

have you been finding it slip at all at 350? what sort of mileage is it on and how much with the remap?

Looking good with the new colour!

Tanks!

No slip at all at 334 hp. Got 62.000 km on it, 40.000 km with Stage 2.
