Default Just lowered the focus a tadge!

After fitting my new wheels last weekend it looked a bit high so I thought I'd get it lowered a bit sharpish!

I plonked it on a set of eibachs yesterday, should settle a bit more yet when the springs wear in a bit, but so far, I'm pleased

Thanks for the comments, they are xenon's which were available as an option, but on the st170 they are still chrome as standard, so I ripped them to bits and painted them inside!

Cheers!

They are KEI Force 10's that I bought second hand off ebay, then I refurbished them myself in ford machine silver (took me about 6 months though lol), and stuck a new set of tyres on them!

Thanks, and yes they are staying! Helps keep the car a bit cleaner and free of stone chips etc.

But don't worry, they are in the process of being colour coded
