Love this van. It's exactly the kind of look i want to go for.

You can tell its been modified, but it's kind of hard to see where. Theres a subtlety to it.

Just a couple of questions re your set up.

What coilovers did you go for and do you know how much it's lowered by?

Also what offset are your wheels and are you running spacers? They look great!

How practical are the stretched tyres? Sorry for the questions, im new to the whole dub scene.

Thanks mate! the coil overs are vmaxx with kw shocks on the rear. its 3 turns off the bottom on the front and on the standard hangers on the back.
The wheels are 9j all round but can't remember the offsets off the top of my head but they are running without spacers.
Ive not had any problem with the stretch but to be honest theres only a little bit of stretch compared to some!!

Do you have any problem with the back door opening over the rear wheel? I've contacted Auto alloys where you got yours from and they're saying if i go for 9's the back door will hit the rim.

I know, i've asked already but does it state the ET on the rim? if it does could you let me know. I'm presuming it would be 45.

Also, do you mind me asking how much you paid for the alloys and coilovers fom Auto alloys? Dont think i've posted enough for you to pm me, but you could email me if you prefer not to post the price on here.
