Default New alloys on my car (pics)

What a boring thread and a very unimaginative choice of wheels but I like them so here we go

Not sure if the pics are being deceptive but it looks like you've got something odd going on with the ride height. Passenger side seems too high particularly at the front.

If he's just fitted them and dropped the car off the jack won't they take a while to settle?

Did consider that but I had him down as the kind of guy who'd pay some oily youth in a garage to fit them rather than getting his hands dirty on his own drive

It'll settle when you drive it, the drive is on a slope so more weight is on the back wheels than it would be on the flat, once you drive it it will go back to normal quickly
