Hi, hope all is well with you and you're car , what a gorgeous motor car, i' ve been into alfa s since my aunty had one , a 105 series gt junior in the seventies bought my first gtv in 96,,,, a 2.0 twin spark and my second a 3.0 v6 in 99, still miss that car today, once you' ve driven an alfa, well you know, and your friend David enjoy your cars.
That lowered car with bigger wheels looks absolutely spot on. Keeps the standard look with but still different when you pull up next to an oem car at the lights
Calvin I have commented before, Michelin DO make a tyre!!! Item: Michelin Pilot Super Sport 285/30 Item: Michelin Pilot Super Sport 245/35 love the channel!
Them accellara tires are death traps. Had them on a set of wheels i bought new and first wet day i had i nearly came off the road just driving low speeds
You know what Calvin? I wish you and yours all the best! Out of all the car guys on RUclips, especially the UK crew, you seem the most genuine and humble and just an all round decent geezer and even through something as inorganic as a piece of technology you still come across as a top fella! Don’t change a thing buddy! Peace
I have a 2018 Quadrifoglio and one piece of carbon fiber that I installed was the OEM plastic rear diffuser. Koshi Group makes a carbon fiber diffuser that perfectly matches the other carbon fiber on the car. The Koshi Group makes the carbon fiber pieces for Ferrari. Also, I replaced the OEM Pirelli tires. I replaced them with the Michelin Pilot Sports 4S. I put in 255-35-19 on the front and 295-30-19 in the rear with no rubbing. I'm actually on my 2nd set on the Pilot Sport 4S on my Quadrifoglio.
I’ll hold my hands up and say im not an Alpha fan but how ever calvin yours and the other fella’s alpha’s look quite tastefull and they do look good lowered also
That guy is spot on about tyres, those acceleras are ditch finders. He is a nice chap too. You may be able to go for a different sidewall side Calv, to see if they are available in ps4's. Maybe be slightly higher sidewall? Keep up the good work 👏 👍
Calvin, you should have gone MPS4S 255/30/19 & 295/30/19 - they fit and look the dogs & they are awesome in the wet. Those Corsa's are a one trip pony!
“Maybe they wanted to see the Alfa” Dude, you’re hilarious!! 😂😂 In one of your vids some guy shook his fist at you “slow down!” and you were like “why would I slow down? I’m in a Type R! (I think that’s what it was from memory). Anyway, I use that line all the time now (sub whatever car I’m in at the time) 😂😂
I recently bought a C63 in the summer and it came with those accelera tyres. As you say Calvin fine in the dry. Once the rain set in I nearly lost the front end on the slip road onto the M6 from the M1. Needless to say I got some Michelin PS4s on there now and it’s transformed the car 👍🏻
I must admit, David's car looked so cool on the 20's and lowered on those springs. The front carbon grill is a must too Calvin, if you haven't bought one already. 😉 Did you go out in David's car to see how much difference there is between his setup and yours? I would be so tempted to change to 20's having seen his car. 👌
Dave:- 'I love this car' Also Dave, throws four filthy wheels onto his back seats Brilliant. Your right, he was a really nice guy. Calvin keep the 19s, buy the lowering springs.
Hi guys. I haven't gone through the comments yet but just to let you know the Michelin 4S tires do fit the Giulia QV. The fronts are OEM size, however the rears are a size larger. I have had them on for a number of months and have had no issues with rubbing. I did lower the car slightly with no adverse effects. The Michelin's, even the Pilot SS is superior to the crappy Pirelli Corsa's that come on the car new. I will stay away from Pirelli forever. Good luck. I can send picks of the tires if interested. Cheers and stay safe.
Yeah man David’s a cool dude, but why was his car flat at the rear’s and yours flared sports arches ? Is that an extra option-? I just assume they all came with the same rear arches?
That looks sick on them 20s wow what a nice looking car that is you have to hand it to the Italians they know how to make a good looking motor but those mods just tip the icing on the cake 👌
Calvin get in touch with yianni form yiannimize he now does carbon ppf which you could put on you room to make it look line carbon fibre mate👍👍just an idea buddy😎
Fitting Accelera's to a car with that much power is criminal! Once bought a car with only 150bhp that had some on the front and that was scary enough 😬
Hope the new tyres Mate allow you to get that power down better 😎. Guy at the end waving his arms was just saying Senddddd it Calv , it’s all good man 👍😎. Take it easy.
Your car looks good. Its good to be different. Should of gone back to see the old man.. im sure he love the alfa lol. Where do you get your wheels refurbished. Thinking changing the colour of mine.
Hi Calv, I think you will still struggle with those Pirelli’s. I had some on my f10 m5 and not only did they take an age to get heat into them, they were pretty dreadful in the wet. Super sport 4s’s were in a different league. Enjoy the sideways action :-)
I binned off my P-Zero Corsas as lethal in the wet, so those Acceleras must be made of ice itself. For PS4s, go up a size on the rear - doesn't rub for my MY19 QV
Any experience with the Mercedes CL Calvin?? I'm looking at a CL500 C216 shape I'm an MK lad with a W221 S Class but fancying a change to a V8, just concerned regarding ABC suspension... Cheers!

One of the most beautiful looking Cars ever built 😍

This subscriber seems so cool and genuine, loved his story on how he got his Alfa 😂
remind me of @NickLLF hehe
What’s his Instagram?
Must say Cal, love how Dave car is sitting on them 20" and the springs as it really transform the car 👌🏾
12:45 put your hands up if you love the Alfa
🙋♂️
Them oldies at the end weren’t too happy with the Alfa🤣
🙄
They were like faster 🙌🏻
Hitchhikers pffft
The horror of a car driving down the road... who'd have though it?! haha
🤷🏻♂️
The old boy at the end was definitely fuming with you giving it some🤣🤣 class
Dave was a lovely chap. Calv needs to upgrade to the 20s his car looked lovely
That lowered car with bigger wheels looks absolutely spot on. Keeps the standard look with but still different when you pull up next to an oem car at the lights
Just finished a great llf video and straight into another.. Happy Sunday everyone 👍
I think the old guy was saying Booyakasha! Calv, I love the Alfa 😂.
What a nice chilled Vlog for a Sunday evening. Dave seems like a cool guy 😎
Please dyno test the giulia stock I want to see the graphts and the real numbers it's putting out
I think we all get on really well with car dealers as long as you are ready to spend some money 😂
The more I see it the more and more it looks beautiful! What a car.
You could speak to David and close your eyes and and do a deal! What a sound guy.
Real nice genuine bloke Topman David. these Alfa's are the real deal.
Calvin I have commented before, Michelin DO make a tyre!!!
Item: Michelin Pilot Super Sport 285/30
Item: Michelin Pilot Super Sport 245/35
love the channel!
Same sizes available on the PS4S?
@@rainoor947 Just SuperSports mate
The old guy was obviously a subscriber and was trying stop you for an onit sticker.
😂😂
Them accellara tires are death traps. Had them on a set of wheels i bought new and first wet day i had i nearly came off the road just driving low speeds
I'm getting a set of Pirelli Sottozero winter tyres fitted to mine this week should transform winter driving 🚗
Sorry Calvin but the 20's look so much better 😍
You know what Calvin? I wish you and yours all the best!

I love that Alfa she’s flipping gorgeous now I’ve gotta save up and buy one 😍😍😍😩😩❤️❤️
Smaller wheels are better, performance over aesthetics any day. Gotta have that carbon front grill in your life Calvin. 🤘🏼

@@mhs0407 I wonder if the larger Michelins front and back add unsprung weight compared to, say, Goodyear F1 SuperSport in OEM sizes.
Absolutely love this car man, such a cool looking beautiful sounding motor, wish to own one in the coming years
I’ll hold my hands up and say im not an Alpha fan but how ever calvin yours and the other fella’s alpha’s look quite tastefull and they do look good lowered also

Dave seemed genuine nice guy 🤜🏻
That is a beautiful motor man. I'd chose over any German equivalent no matter what the engine or performance. They just look something else
Theres always a dodgy dave with a set of knock off wheels 😂😂
Calvin, you should have gone MPS4S 255/30/19 & 295/30/19 - they fit and look the dogs & they are awesome in the wet. Those Corsa's are a one trip pony!
He reminds me of the guy off the TV can't pay we will take it away
“Maybe they wanted to see the Alfa”
Dude, you’re hilarious!! 😂😂
In one of your vids some guy shook his fist at you “slow down!” and you were like “why would I slow down? I’m in a Type R! (I think that’s what it was from memory). Anyway, I use that line all the time now (sub whatever car I’m in at the time) 😂😂
Should see if you can pick up Goodyear F1 Supersports in the size you need. I have had MPS4S before and the Goodyear’s are every bit as good.
Stunning bit of kit that👍
Proper gamily whip init. Brilliant. I'm going to Alfa today...
Mate.. I can't stop looking at this car.. beautiful.
I honestly love the effort Calvin puts in all these video, that’s one reason why he’s my favourite RUclips, ans his content is just too notch 🤟🏼🤟🏼
20’s look great plus little extra carbon touch on front grill was nice
Bit of heat in the Pirellis and they'll grip up a bit more. They go hard stored.
Have them on my Quadrifoglio. They're shit. Getting Michelin super sports ASAP.
I recently bought a C63 in the summer and it came with those accelera tyres. As you say Calvin fine in the dry. Once the rain set in I nearly lost the front end on the slip road onto the M6 from the M1. Needless to say I got some Michelin PS4s on there now and it’s transformed the car 👍🏻
Wait for the summer with a bit of heat in them you can bury the throttle in S+ and traction in sport. PS4S are the one 👍🏼
Old man “Calvin stop I love the Alfa let me go for a drive 🙌🏼”
Lol that old dear was raging lol 🙈 Another awesome vid. Great to see two side by side. That’s certainly a rare thing and good for comparison. 🍻🍻
Got Michelin pilot sport 4 tyres on my Volvo now it’s not fast or anything but it does stick to the road and drive really well on them at any speed.
Im lucky that im subscribed to this chanel. Keep it up Calvin
Gotta rate how crazey this guy is, he loves his car an then throws 4 wheels in on the back seat 😂
Got P Zeros on the XFR and my Quattroporte.... in my opinion, best all-round tyre for big super-saloons👍😊
Calvin I think you should do the carbon grill surround and the mirror caps aswell and also lower it because his looks so nice
20s look so so good on that car.
I must admit, David's car looked so cool on the 20's and lowered on those springs. The front carbon grill is a must too Calvin, if you haven't bought one already. 😉 Did you go out in David's car to see how much difference there is between his setup and yours?

Also Dave, throws four filthy wheels onto his back seats
Brilliant. Your right, he was a really nice guy.
Calvin keep the 19s, buy the lowering springs.
I'm sitting on pzeros and they certainly do the job. The GTM sits on 20s so that's the way forward but I personally wouldn't lower it

@@richardshaw1968 cool man, thanks for explaining that 👍, I think the £70k Version would put a big enough smile on me face 😊
That looks sick on them 20s wow what a nice looking car that is you have to hand it to the Italians they know how to make a good looking motor but those mods just tip the icing on the cake 👌
Calvin get in touch with yianni form yiannimize he now does carbon ppf which you could put on you room to make it look line carbon fibre mate👍👍just an idea buddy😎
I like that idea 👌
Have a look at his Lamborghini urus he recently wrapped the car in it looks amazing buddy👍👍
That’s funny as fcuk calv, the guy at the end with his arms up in the air like 🤬🤬, then calvin’s little giggle at the end joker 😂😂😂😂😂 lmfao 😁🤣😁🤣😁
I prefer a smaller wheel but that alfa on 20s is sumin else
One Alfa looks great but 2 together look amazing 👍👍
Top guys and them alfas are very nice id go as far to say top of my list. Big wheels and the kw springs look awesome
You need the 20s, looks so much better
Fitting Accelera's to a car with that much power is criminal! Once bought a car with only 150bhp that had some on the front and that was scary enough 😬

Seems a top guy and his car looks spot on
What a top bloke .👍👍
Lower it and a set of Vossers...would be sic👌🏻 Enjoying the content 👍🏻
Your car looks good. Its good to be different. Should of gone back to see the old man.. im sure he love the alfa lol.
Where do you get your wheels refurbished. Thinking changing the colour of mine.
That is a immense looking car with the larger wheels and lowered 😍
Saw one today on a roundabout first I've ever seen in the wild
Amazing cars, bravo Alfa
Hi Calv, I think you will still struggle with those Pirelli’s. I had some on my f10 m5 and not only did they take an age to get heat into them, they were pretty dreadful in the wet. Super sport 4s’s were in a different league. Enjoy the sideways action :-)
Love these cars..stunning
I binned off my P-Zero Corsas as lethal in the wet, so those Acceleras must be made of ice itself. For PS4s, go up a size on the rear - doesn't rub for my MY19 QV
You need some Sottozeros for the winter
Sorry to say Calvin. Those PZeros are shit in the wet too. I had them on my QV
I love tgis car it looks aggressive
Calvin scaring the locals in the Alfa 😂
The old guy at the end 🤣🤣🤣🤣 legend Calvin
This is a Declaration of Love!! Really Both Petrol Heads
dave a lovely guy great cars and video calvin
Idk why but a Subaru/Supra style wing would look so good on the Alfa
What are the measurements of the tires?
What are the measurements of those 20-inch tires?
Yo bro this video was a Madness 2 Alfa’s for the price of one this was sick loved it 🔥🔥🔥🔥 @calvinscardiary great Content bro Merry Christmas🎄bro
Allways liked alfas, but they really up'd their game with this one. Would definitely lower it though. Makes a savage difference 👌👌
Should have fitted Michelin cross climates tons more grip in low temperatures
Not available in rear size.
So Calvin which would be the best winter tyre for the Alfa?Michelin!!!
You can get carbon effect ppf now a company I know do roof wraps with it
Looks nice but I am not too keen on Italian cars
What a pleasant guy
Pirellis are good but wear out quick i had the on c4s P,S YOU CAN GO THROUGH 2 LOTS OF SHOES A YEAR
Great video calvin
Calvin, them 20’s & lowered😍
I used to work as a fitter at a part worn tyre centre, we used to throw the acceleras away.
😂😂
@@CalvinsCarDiary they are shite lol
Any experience with the Mercedes CL Calvin?? I'm looking at a CL500 C216 shape
I'm an MK lad with a W221 S Class but fancying a change to a V8, just concerned regarding ABC suspension... Cheers!
Stance on 20s is so much better
You only need to lower your QV bro. It’ll look sic on the smaller wheels.
Get the carbon grille ❤
Davids 20inch wheels look so much better matey 🤷♂️
Dealer fitted four new Acceleras on my V8 M3 when I bought it, terrible tyres and nearly killed me, binned em off sharpish!
Quality fella, nice subtle mods too, get #onit Calvin
