Well after many weeks of impatience and overtime I finally put the rims on the car and sat it on king lows.The rims are ROH 17" RT's,tyres are 235/45 's.
The car is a daily so I only put lows on it as superlows would have caused me some grief getting into my driveway etc.Even so,bodyroll has been eliminated and it hugs the road alot better.My car is a bit rough around the edges and the new look may not be everyones cup of tea but it is my car....my pride and joy.... and Im stoked to the eyeballs. |

I had those rims on my old EL bout 2.5 years ago, started an annoying trend in my area as everyone started putting them on their e-series, spose thats cos they do look good, the fact their only 17"s started annoying me tho. Uve got like a replica of my old EL (rims and lows). Reminds of how good it looked!

We and a mate were talking about EB Lightning as have seen your car in pics at the park.Its not far from Bluemist's house so drove there today to take a few pics while waiting for pizza LOL.I like the way you can drive onto the grass.Cant do that at Albert Park lake which is just down the road from where I live.

Looks good. Heaps better than stockies! It's insane trying to find the normal threads amongst the crap in the e-series section at the moment!
