yea, i was going to say those tyres are on the correct way...

Wanli's are the cheapest available. I have had Wanli, Bridgstone and now Nexens. Wanli's hook up GREAT at the drags, bridgestones are crap, and the Nexen's are ok...

Those plates are pretty good. They will serve a purpose N/A, and when you turbo it. :D

Sweet. Ha, your EL will sound similar to mine now too. Now start a debate on whether you should go a mesh air filter instead or keep the paper one. I didn't pay for my K&N, so I have no doubts it's better with the extractors :)

But yes you have got me, the tyres are the right way around. and the wheels.
Haha nah mate.. I got the cheapest tyres out there..Yellowsea ... WTF anyone wanna guess where they come from?! Came with my 18's, although they are actually a sweet looking tyre, virtually no wear after 20,000km and I havnt exactly driven like a grandpa, slippery as crap in the wet tho :D .

Car looks great mate... not a big fan of the altezza's but definitly looks better on your car then a lot of seen, 1+ for tint your altezzas and indicators.
