I reckon, perhaps controversially, slightly chunkier tyres together with a slight drop to tuck the top of the tyres into the arch and it would look perfect. Either or, the banded steels really make the car.

I really like that a lot... ...but I think the shape of the caps make the wheels look a little too fussy. Do they fit over the wheel nuts/bolt heads - if so maybe try some micra ones with the nissan logo flattened off. These are the sort I mean, from a base spec K11

thats the nuts right there. it suprises me how a good wheel/tyre combo can transfor what is in all fairness an oap spec motor. well done that lad. the plans sound good, but try and keep the car minimialist and steer away from trends imo it could work realy well.

looks great that! Very clean and the wheels suit it prefectly. Should look even better with a few more inches out of the ride height Oh and just a niggle, the spring in the last pic doesn't seem to be seated properly.
