Everything except the stance. I like the stance of a Callooker. I just don't like it so slammed. Maybe it is because of my driveway(s).

I saw a Beetle in Volksworld where they got the stance simply by using a higher profile tyre on the rear than on the front, and I dug that... I think that's the answer to my Razor's stance, which I also don't smaak too much.

my opinion is that the front is a bit to high. either same height as rear or lower. that pic looks like he has a load in the back :D

I like this one, but not the wheels and not the stance, the stance of the one above that 1972 posted is good

this is how my car looked with 195/50/15s up front and 195/60/15 at the rear, not much of a nose down stance but it does make a decent difference.

Ja, now that looks lekker, maybe even a 70 profile on the back, lekker. I can see you thought hard about this.

the first owner gave me a box of stuff, one of the things that where in it was the lights from the different years. I would say the smaller set is for the 54?

Yep, "hearts" for the 54 and the snowflakes are 57 to around 60 iirc .

Nice! Try buying a set of heart lights of ebay and see what they go for!
