Bit of a update on the Hatchback,
I purchased new 3 1/2” outer rims to widened the rear wheels out to 9” & stuffed in 245/45/16 tyres.

Found a nice original steering with still some good grain.

I’ve clocked up about 1200k’s now mostly going to coffee meets & a few car shows which I’ve scooped up a few trophies 🏆

Looks awesome, glad to see it's out and about - did you go through Tempe Tyres for the outers? I had heard ordinary things, but personally found them really good to deal with and priced right when I did mine.

Thanks Sam
I can’t get enough of driving the Hatchback…. Absolutely love it !!

Yes I purchased the outers from Tempe Tyres, they were good to deal with as well & the delivery was super fast. I stripped the wheels down, cleaned, fitted and sealed the wheels myself.

Cheers Aaron
