Theres better ways to making a car handle other than sticking on wide alloys!


Dont stick on the S1 arches, it'll look shite


get a set of coilovers, Adjustable TCA's, and have it poly bushed for starters

S1 arches are a big no no on a faz mate for sure!

Why change from a perfect kit on XR2i/FRST IMO
