ascona400r Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Looks well indeed.... The only criticism is the size of the rear tyres - the side wall looks wrong which leaves her sitting a bit too high at the rear.. Not picking for faults as i do like the look of it. Cheers Quote
rutts Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 same as above. looks ok would definatly change rear tyres and lower it down if possible. Quote
Clint Kember Posted December 7, 2013 Author Posted December 7, 2013 the back tyres are brill don't want skinny little tyres gotta fill the arches lol forest spec don't want it sitting lower 1 Quote
GTREA Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Its certainly a very 80's styled car with the jacked up rear end You can keep the Fat tyre look, so it will look the same from the rear, but lower the tyres sidewall profile so the car sits level from the side If your running 265/60/15's on there at the moment and went to a 265/50/15 the tyres would be about 30mm smaller in diameter, kind of like this example At the end of the day though its what you like that matters Quote

ascona400r Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 Thats what i was saying - not the width but the height of the tyre - leaves rear of her very high. But your car so do what you think best sir..... Quote
Clint Kember Posted December 9, 2013 Author Posted December 9, 2013 dont mind comments but pretty picky i thought i would share pictures on a manta sight where they would be appreciated obviously not ,not to worry i shant waste time bothering again i will leave you to it hope your mantas are as good and solid as this one , Quote
ascona400r Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) It's not being picky, it's just people giving an opinion and trying to advise you on what things may improve the look of your car. Never read anything saying they didn't like what you have done. Edited December 9, 2013 by ascona400r Quote
E60 VBU Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 photos taken from British camp - are you local? Haven't seen a manta around these parts for a long time. Quote
rutts Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 if you ask for comments you will get them. I know the car well its always had the stance it has. just other peoples ideas on how they like a manta to look as you have with the graphics. just enjoy it and let it loose on the cat and fiddle road. 2 Quote

robah Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 Clint it's your car and your drive, just do what you want and don't worry about others opinions. Most people on here are just assisting and advising on what they see and do not try to offend, the written word can be taken in any format and everyone see's thee worst case scenario. Happy driving and I hope to meet up in the New Year 2 Quote
