'96 Mitsubishi Colt

I don't know how long I willl keep it, its 70mm bigger than old one and I'm so used to driving with the 'go kart'/'Playstation'/'Toy' steering wheel lol, the Cusco's are good, they aren't adjustable damping but the setting there on is about right (still got standard wheels and tyres on atm though). And we do know each other from the Colt forum yeah but I got to this site throughhhhh... Wheel-whores I think!

small world!

u dropping the rotas back on or u got plans for rims?

Those 9" wide black banded steels, probably won't fit but meh, time to hop on the fitment game I guess

That's how it stands atm, with a bonnet though and the 9"s on the rear, tbh its a little..insane, either gonna get some arches round it or get some 15x8's. But yes the stance is nowhere near nice yet. lol.

you are indeed on the fitment bandwagon but fark it, its the best bandwagon around imo, lol.

looks good man, more drop and camber would sort it

love that

Tell me about it, drop though... I had my car doing what I like to call 'the crocodile' on a country road, it was actually riding on the exhaust and sump guard (i think this is what it is) literally, the wheels were trying to lift off the ground down this cambered single track road doing 0mph.. Ruined the flexi pipe on the exhaust..

dayum, i like that, imma call it the croc from now on, haha

u need fatter tyres for more tuck then, or just leave it, have you got a pic from the side?

naa, will do soon, I'm either gonna get chunkier tyres, cos I love the look of the old J-tin with really chunky stretched rubber, like so:

Or get some bolt on arches, also like the J-tin stuff lol

Or get 15x8s..ish lol

I got some 15x8 enkeis for sale!! cough*porsche fitment*cough

J-tin?

Saw them, lovely wheel, but I also read the offset you'd have to rock lol

It's old jap cars, not quite sure why it gets called that but I guess Japanese tin?

haha, i know i know

Oh, thats a new term for me

Right so some people asked for side views so I got these in quickly because...





You may be able to see a tow because...

The car sat quite low on the 14"s...

Which resulted in this...





Which means...



These are for sale.

Lol hope you liked the story of my saturday!

yeah man, a real pan scraper! props for riding that low, it looks so badass on them steels.

Sorry to read how it ended up though.

hit me up if you want 15's

whats the plan now then?

i agree it did look bad on those steels what a shame and a broken oil pan is what we like to see on TOA

Smashing a sump does make you feel a bit cool I reckon, obviously after the major inconvenience stuff is out of the way lol! But 15s it's gotta be I reckon, maybe 14s with chunky tyres sometime but 15s next I think, it came with 13s, then put on 17s, then 16s, then 14s and on 13s again now, 15 is the only number missing going back to the colourful alloy again I reckons, got a few choices of wheels right now which is good!

Did this on my colt and that wasn't even lowered think it was because i hit a bridge at 70 5 up

oh that would of looked so cool with some flaired arches sorry to hear bout the sump dude that sucks

ebay, 15" banded steelies 4x100pcd guys wants 200 thoe

I can see 330 gbp ones?

how much for the banded steels?
