There are some photos in there. My AU isn't dropped on it's a$$ as such, but the lowest point on the car is far too low to the ground (Rear muffler, can see it in the last picture), gonna be getting that fixed up over the holidays Oh yeah, as mentioned above.. Cleaning the Azzurros is a BEEYATCH! If you want them cleaned well, honestly it will take a good hour for all 4

If you can find a set of azzuros do it. The AU2 tickford kit rocks.

It looks weird without the rear wing, unless you lowered it. Although the Azzurro's would pull it off nicely, they're a tad too busy a rim for the conservative colour of the car. A 9 or a 7 spoke rim would achieve a much classier effect.

Second option Im considering is BA ghia rims????,I will do a shop with them as they are easier to get hold of.!! Or my BF XR 18" wheels???????????being a ghia I dont think they really suit it.

I saw someone on ebay selling a complete set of 18" Azzuros for under $500 brand new, still in the plastic (minus the tires of course)
I was actually thinking of getting them cuz mine are not in the best of condition, but someone snapped them up quick smart Keep on ebay, cuz it was a large seller of wheels, so they might get more

I decide to fit the BF xr wheels for now,doesnt look too bad,just needs to be lowered ,I want it about the same hieght as an XR6 as this is the wifes car and I dont want to hear about what carparks she couldnt get into every second day!!!!!
But this means my SR wagon got the old ghia wheels,ah well, looks like I get new wheels now [IMG][/IMG] oh and excuse the camera ,its really a waste of desk space. Ill take better shots over the next few days.

Believe it or not, but they are supposedly Tickford height spring. It has King 'Low' springs and standard height Pedders Gas Comfort Ryder shocks. The back sits a bit heigher than the front at the moment. I have a pair of King 'Super Low' springs at home I want to install. I will get them installed with some shortened comfort shocks, which is what I would sugest you do in the first place. It will sit nice and flat, but not so low that its unusable.
