Well time for a update! Fitted the 19" m3 wheels on and I didnt like the drive so have been out and bought some g-grid ultralite wheels meant for a impreza and weighting 52kgs each they are light, but with some drilling and spacers they fit a treat! I'll update with photos soon, old black lcr wheels are for sale currently on a well known auction site!!'

52kg each wheel? That can't be right, the car would hardly move :lol:

Yes got that wrong they are 5.2 kgs a rim! Not taken any photos yet really must get round too it! Ive fallen out of love for my lcr at the minute as I've got a new project car and this has taken a back seat! See the Loughboro thread for photos of the latest project! I'll take some decent photos when the weather picks up

Still own a the lcr but needed something more reliable and economical so opted for a mk2 leon tdi! When I bought it it was already lowered and mapped so all it really needed was a nice set of rims to set it off! I've painted the front bumper and the mirror covers just to change the frot end a little! Hope you like
