Wink Saw my car being driven , looked awsome !

I followed my wife home driving her car whilst she was driving my car the other day (yeah I know i'm brave!) .... and OMG did my ride look awsome, !!! Seriously I have not had a chance of seeing it being driven before and the rear wide wheels and tyres with the spacers just look incredible. As the wheel went over bumps and the tyre moved up inside the wheel arch with mm to spare it looked so rude... Try it and see, get your mate to drive your car and then film it . !!

Thumbs up

mannnnn I know the feeling! I've let a select 'few' safe drivers drive my car before on quiet back roads, but I was in the car with them traveling to the destination. On the other hand, one time I purchased a small piece of furniture that I had to load up in the trunk, so I had my cousin go get the car.

She gets in the car, and mannnnnn howdy! The car looked amazing just reversing and then pulling forward and turning! It was great! So great!

Now I have to see it being driven with the new lights and such.


GREAT THREAD!

uuuhh, I don't know if you've noticed but in that pic your Benz is on a street/highway lane and there's no driver behind the steering wheel driving it! hahaha, very brave soul. Reminded me of the movie Beetle Juice for some strange reason....

I f--king loved watching my girl drive my car away when she needed it a couple of months ago...There is def something to be said about watching someone else in your car. Now if I had a nice wheel setup like A1EK...it would be that much better.

This thread sounds so materialistic. BUT...
I watched my husband drive off after a wash and my new Carlsson reps and I fell in love all over again, with the car.

im really glad you guys share the same feeling as me.... its just so gorgeous seeing your car in front of you, how the light reflects off my rims and how much lower and more flush the wheels look then I thought and enjoying each turn it takes.
Best of all knowing just how good you actually look when you drive it !
