I concider myself a purist, but this car is still one of the sexiest builds out there...

[newman]

It has HUGE tires in the back... It really can't go any lower... especially because I have some MT street radials on order that are even bigger.... d'oh!!!

Should be lower, Dave-ger is right.

Not even about the stäncé

ha, thank you sir. His car does have decent stance, but if he lowered it, it could be great.

I can't believe how good that looks. Just wow. I bet it scares the fuck out of GT2 owners.

What hubs are used to get to 5 lug on the lotus? Any point aside from wheel selection? Are the wheel bearings larger / better brakes / anything like that?

Just better wheel selection.... lotus owners have been crying for them for a while now, So I figured if I can come up with a cheap kit...

The hubs are some euro vauxhall hubs that are going to be modified...

You bastard. I love Lotus'. I don't really care for the decals/stickers on yours, but to each his own.

I can't wait to see what they are.
