Those Brixtons look great! Do you mind sharing wheel and tire specs? I am thinking about ordering a set of CM10s from them

I think that's how headlamps look outside of the states since we require a reflector

Agree. Would love to know the specs as well. Also, did you lower the car? Use spacers?
Fantastic look

Looks fantastic, I would also like to know if you have had any tire rub in the rear. I wanted to do a similar setup but I am worried about a wider wheel rubbing.

Just be cautious, 12.5" rears has been known to rub with visual evidence of torn up "carpeted" area inner wheel wells. 12" will be safe and the 325 Pirelli's look great on them, not overly stretched.

Sorry for all the questions, but you are giving me something to seriously think about. How do the lowering springs change the ride?

well i am facing rubbing in front and rear but not while driving, what i mean for the front if you are on speed hump and you want to go side way the tire would rub with the fender and you should take care otherwise fender might get damaged,, for the rear at the begining i used to have some rubbing issue when imy car goes in pit hole in the street but after i knew how to drive it i am okay now

i think prefect size would be front 9.5 and rear 12

no change in the ride you can change the driving modes same as before and the comfort mode feels the same
