Finally got round to reading this thread, great work on your fb Jesse. couple of things I need do the same, such as the door seals, but funnily enough ive just fitted the same prototipo steering wheel:)

Must have a meet up at some point, only an hour away.

Black dragon are currently having a sale so some door seals are cheap from there. Not all are available though.

Thanks! The Prototipo is such a nice wheel. I'm still happy as with it aye haha. Door seals made a nice difference when driving! New ones block out a lot of road noise which makes it a lot better in the cabin. I got the last right side (maybe left?) door seal in the UK apparently, but the guys at my local Mazda dealership said they can still be ordered - it'd just take a couple weeks.

Definitely meet up once I sort my car out and re-tax and MOT it

Merry Christmas to me! 14x7 SSR Longchamps. The eBay auction lists offset as +5. With custom centre caps made from a solid plastic material as the proper ones are near impossible to find. Nice acrylic stickers with them also. Managed to score them from Bulgaria of all places! Awesome shipping (especially over Xmas). . Just gotta figure out what size tyres to buy... Depending on what I can actually find Suggestions? Gotta figure out what to do with my 2 spare Longchamps now hahaha

Good old Santa & his posse They look good, are you fitting same size all round or narrower on front

[myatt1972]

WhooHoo Those look superb

[TOOL]

Looking good dude. There's just not the availability in 13s and 14s now. Good luck.

You can test mount 2 old tires not so expensive, Jesse. Ask your tires dealer.
Perhaps 205/60/14 and 195/65/14 more stretching on the 7" wheel.
I can see all your goodies picture you posted here.
Can 't wait to see all put together.

Thomas is right Jesse, I have 205 on rear & 195 on the front, does make the steering feel a lot more positive with less wander. One of my local tyre fitters sells part worn & he fitted some 195s on the front to try before fitting new My wheels are also 7J

[Hobbawobba]

Thanks guys. I measured them just to double check and turns out they're only 6.5's! Bit annoying as the auction said 7j. Luckily I have a pair of 7j in my wardrobe so might just put the 7's on back with 6.5's up front. Gotta see how things go.

Hopefully I can post a decent update soon. Just gotta finish up the last little bits of wiring haha

[Wires]

They should go really well mate, looking forward to seeing them on the car.

Would love a similar retro set on mine but the 5x114.3 hub conversion says no!
