Me van at Cornwall Jamboree :wink:

and at a campsite nr newquay

I am now on the look out for a lower profile set of tyres for the front, still with the whitewall on tho, which is proving to be a problem as i cant find em in any size other than what i run currently, which is 205 X 70 X 15.

Please let me know if anybody knows where they are available (must be somewhere :roll: )

Cool piccies, Easy! 8) Those curtains look really cool on your van!

Good luck hunting those low-profile tyers down!

What width are your wheels, btw?

 

[Chris]

great pics easy
your van just gets better and better
love the curtains

 

[easy]

Right then! im getting a bit bored of the white walls! :shock: so am gonna play around with the wheels n tyres, plus a little tinkle with the lowering stick (again!).

I have got some spare notch wheels that have smart car tyres on, the same as these ones on the front of my notch :wink:

By my calculations this should drop the front about 2 inches, that should do it.

What do you think?

This is her as she currently stands

Another 2" that'll be well in the weeds 8)

Hey Easy,

I like the color of your early, any chance you wanna give me your color code and brand?

Hope U do ;-)

 

[easy]

Gonna have a play with the wheels when I get 5 mins. :wink:

The paint colour is a one off colour its basically savanna beige with the black taken out :wink: (if you look down the lines of citreon beiges then you wont go far wrong :wink: )

So the stance is going to be a bit more nose-down then? I always like a stance like that! 8) Go for it!

Thats the plan, to give it that rake that makes the westy looks so mean

Depending on what the drop is, I may lower the back half a spline (again!) 8)

[easy]

Guess what???? Poppy failed her MOT :shock:

First time in years! The front beam that I had my doubt about has cracked on both sides of the end plates! :shock: everything else was perfect 8)

So after a very short think :wink: its a weedeater beam and some adjustable shocks 8)

Taking the opportunity to get some adapter plates made up aswell so that I can get 4" narrower at the front! :wink: I can drop the front another 1.5" and keep the same wheels! 8) see not all bad in the end, just got to get out on the streets to sell me wares and get some extra cash to pay for it all :shock: :wink:

 

[dna]

That's a bummer Ez.

I'll sell you my beam if you want :wink:

I was gonna go for it Al, but have a few other things to sort with it, to get an extra wheel tuck in, the weedeater beam seems to be the one for the job :wink:

How much bad luck have we had with beams! :lol:
