The B6 Stance and Picture Thread

[g-black]

I recon about 25-30mm. It's almost there but just not quite what I want. Spring were cheap so I'm not complaining about that and the ride is excellent. My H&R springs in the old estate b6 were just about right but it sat a little high at the front.

Think I'm only going to be happy with it when i can get it to sit just perfectly and high adjustment is there fore key. Would also lobe to see what it looks like wound right down. Just for the sheer wow factor

Just thought I would throw up a photo now that the springs have settled in. Don't think it's low enough but it is a really comfy ride.



Think I shall save up and get some AP coilovers and treat myself at Christmas!

Looking good G Black love the wheels. I think with the bentlys sticking out it would be a good idea to drop it some more. How low was your previous estate? Hope you keep up the shinny shinny of the deep black pearl it looks great .

Rappy.

With ref to the wheels any wax will burn off very quickly due to the heat. I would purchase some Meguiars next tech wax 2.0 and apply weekly or every 3-4 days like I do .

Remember to leave it on for at least an hour before buffing off and apply it whisper thin.

On the little foam applicator pad you would need around the size of a 10 pence piece of product to complete the 4 wheels.

I always use this wax, it looks great on black cars and gives a wet look for weeks.

What are you washing the car with 2 buckets & grit guards? what shampoo are you using?

Now g-b that is hot lovin it

I think the ride height doesn't look too far off, but in my opinion its the very low profile stretched rubber that looks too skinny.
Were you going for that look or do wider tyres rub due to the Bentley's width/offset.

The current Tyres are 225/35 front amd 235/35/19 rear. Reason being that they come of the merc wheels I previously had which were 8.5 front and 9.5 rear. The bentleys are 9 all round. The front Tyres are nearly done, so I'll be putting 235/35/19 nvm on the front. That's the biggest size I can get away with. At the min the rears just catch the carpet liners but I'll soon be cutting that out.

Off work to day so I hope to get a layer or two of wax on, weather permitting!

The estate was down about 40mm and sat just right with the 19" wheels. I'll also add that I never had any problems with the standard shock. Still in 1 price when I sold the car. Probably the only thing still working properly!

Got my coilovers and wheels on today. Well all the springs but one of the reat shock bolts is stuck fast.

Wheels are 8.5x20" ET45 Fox Futura (Warranty returns as there is a bit of corrosion on the spoke faces but for £350 for what should cost over £900) Tyres are 225/35/20.

Coilovers are FK AK Street. Lowered all the way on the rear and 20mm still to go on the fronts. Will need to lift it slightly but glad i went for them.

Was getting dark so pics a bit crap.


Bit low on the rear lol.

[g-black]

Mmmmmm. Lovely!

Was just about to come online and post up my new ideas for my own stance but dubvrs has basically just beaten me to it.

Decided that I'm not happy with how my new car looks, probably because it looks exactly the same as the last car! So it's time for a change!

First thing is I will be selling the bentleys! Decide now is a good time to sell them as there in a good condition. Been looking at something with a dish, possibly a black face. Possibly BBS LM replicas or these...

Then with the extra money from selling the bentleys and a few other bits, I'll get some coilovers. I've heard great things about AP so will probably buy a set of them.

how much for the bentley rims? I dont need the tyres. Them fuel's look awesome

Damn you if you do get LM's, ive been trying to keep that a secret for ages! lol
