i cant remember mate, i did buy them brand new think they were around £400 with tyres, they called TSW Black Ice anyway if your wondering what they are. they could do with a refurb as living in the country all the stones have chipped the paint off so its all white speckles on them now, i have been thinking about selling them if anyone gave me a decent offer.

i can add as much as i want roughly on the front due to being able to adjust the camber angle, but the back is fixed but its not setup correctly yet anyway, i still want to make an arch roller and press the arches at the rear to see if i can get the back any lower

right my corsa has got a pretty serious problem, well a time consuming one anyway! iv came across a leak on the petrol tank somewhere :( just lately iv averaged about 75 miles to about £20 :meh: and when you reach underneath and put your hand ontop of the tank where the inlet pipe joins all the dirt is soaked with petrol... so iv got to drop the tank nooooooooooooo, hope its up and going still for PVS.

right iv got the corsa in the workshop now with the back end in the air! im going to have a go at the tank 2moro, but at least she's ready to go,

anyway i got the rear beam of the SRI that i had in the shed with the rear torsion bar in and iv stripped it down complete and iv just put a coat of chassis black paint on it, and then its time to re-build it :) and can also put my rear polly bushes in aswell :) heres a photo, sorry the beam is upside down but its still wet atm.

oh and the caddy, thats just a standard 1.6 diesel with 163,000 miles on the clock and starts first time :) and its sitting as low as i want to go, its running 15 inch wheels, where as your mates was probably on 13inch which most modified caddys are, and then they are propper sump scrapers, but mine still looks mint tbf as it is,
