Just been fitting my new wheels to the Monza after painting them yesterday. Ebay special from a 5 series BMW grand total of £49 with 4 brand new tyres. Gave them a quick rub down and then painted them, although I had to respray a couple of them due to a nice metallic shine (Note to self- In future clean the gun properely after spraying silver when using lacquer ) Old wheels ET49 new ones ET25 giving me an increase in track of around two inches and much fuller arches to boot. BEFORE AFTER

The front looks a little high there as it had not settled after dropping it off the jack. It could be done with being a bit lower evenm though GSE`s are 40mm lower than a standard Monza but no one does spring kits for them anymore and I wont cut them especially as the back are progressive rates. I will have to try and get in touch with the company that TonyCC used to get his 3" chopped springs for his merc. But it needs new dampers as it is so I will have to get them done before new springs (AVO adjustable £70 each fr and £50 each rear) plus I really need more power either that or the interior will come out . Problem is this was just supposed to be a fun road car until I got my escort (`s) sorted now its turning into another project. I have got some narrower tyres as well so I am going to have a look and see what they look like stretched to fit
