Hi everyone.
Last few months have seen a lot of work done to my v70 tdi, water pump failure causing the most trouble!!! But after that got sorted, I robbed plod monkey's suspension from his 2005 S60 when we fitted his coilovers. So i no longer have self levelling rear suspension. I swapped the fronts too because mine were orange with rust. Officially All straight swaps, even if the jobs didn't go all straight forward! I also chopped a coil off the springs, as they are the right type of spring to chop.
Then for the alloys. I went for Jaguar xkr 2009 onwards, but I bought 4 rears. All 19"x9.5". And then I fitted 7.5" wide tyres, 35 profile, and I also had them painted candy blue spokes and pearl white rims.
I haven't fitted the fronts properly yet, I need spacers, camber and maybe wide arches. But the rears got sorted this weekend. I needed to cut away some of the wheel arch lining, and 9mm spacers, extended wheel bolts. I think it has come together quite nicely,
More pics to follow!
