new rims and rubber

[Paul R]

well went down to rochford tyres today and after a bit of haggling and me dithering about which wheels to go for i ended up with a new set of these

including upgraded rubber and new locking wheel nuts etc for £390

i like them and pics on the car will follow tomorrow

hopefully these work LOL now just need to level the front off with the rear and fit me new shocks when the y get here then comes the fun bit engine then paint

Bargain! They look pretty cool also.

i dont like them at all imo they just dont suit the 11 the look kind of cheap n tacky. i think the car would look far better on turbines and lowered to suit or some other wheel thats got abit more of a face rather than spokes.
sorry bud,just being honest.

As Raj said.. Each to their own though, and you could have done worse.

lol sorry bud, just my opinion. but as long as you like them

im bloody picky when it comes to rims, hence why i cant find a reasonably priced 2nd hand set that im willing to put on the 5

Totally agree with raj , sorry paul but that car is seriously retro buddy and those rims just aint , but like the man said " if you like um thats what counts", your driving the ole girl after all!!!, i think the original rims in black or as has been said turbines etc would look ace on it buddy.....

[raj]

paul. we all want to pick on you really

i agree with raj and the holly man with long hair .
those wheels dont go anywhere near the lines of that car mate .
you need some retro ,preferably with dish wheels imo
