I've been on this site for a while getting valuble hints and tips over the last year but haven't really posted much due to my 1 year old son keeping me busy.

The car is pretty much as i bought it... it was an impulse buy after having a quick drive following constant problems with my vectra v6...

I will be looking at coilovers and remap in the future.

Anyway heres a few pics of my car and the rims that will be on within the next week or so.

Looks a nice LCR and i would sooner have the LCR wheels. New wheels look good tho,and cred to you.
Look forward too seeing what they look like once on your car

Just looking at pic again,you need a cover for your drivers side side skirt

Jacking point cover is only a few quid from dealer, tricky to match platinum paint though.

And for the record I love the wheels, thats why I bought them for mine and did them the same colour (a year ago :p)

Hope you've got some spacers and extended bolts lined up...

Just curious to see with that colour, which i know they will look good

got the spacers and bolts...! I was worried about how far they would stick out on 15mm spacers but after seeing EmDee profile pic i had no doubts about how they would look on the car.

I was looking for 1 cupra r alloy but managed to get those rims for £150. Only took a little bit of prep work to get them ready for painting. I've never really been a man for silver wheels, they've all had to go dark..... must be coz i'm lazy and cant be bothered to clean them. Hoping to get them on the car before I go back to work on the 4th.

I will be doing a few things to tidy the car up about march time, after a 50K mile service. I'll probs get a jacking point cover then.

Theres a select amount of wheels that suit the LCR and they are one of them so should look good, But its hard to find a wheel that suits the LCR more than the standard wheels :D
