Thought i would start a new profile for my current lude. It was originally brought to be my daily drive but after my son was born it wasn't practical to keep it so i put it up for sale.
i had a track lude which i was going to be repairing the rear arches on, but after having a closer look the rot had spread to the inner arches so i decided to keep my daily and turn it into my new road legal track lude.
i will be swapping most parts from my old lude onto this one.
Heres a few pics of what it looked like when i brought it.

I'm trying to get hold of a set of them in 17x9J, but the offset I want is only available in the States :roll: There was a one-off second hand set on ebay the other day, but second hand they still went for £495! :shock: They weren't the colour I wanted, otherwise I would have gone for them. But before shipping and customs I've found a place that will sell them for £430 brand new and in the colour I want ;-)

Good stuff Jon.

Are you going to re-locate battery to the boot again?

If/when you do, remember to invite me along & we'll do mine at the
same time :D

Do I need one of these?;

what offset are you looking for.
£430 doesn't seem to bad but then it depends what shipping and customs will cost.
They are defiantly a nice set of wheels though and do stand out.

cheers mate. i have already relocated the battery to the boot but i can still come give you a hand if needed. Ive just used my stock battery tray to mount it at the moment but will be getting an after market one soon enough.
