Back on the subject of *THE WHEELS* - they look epic B)

What's your choice of sealant gonna be?

That is the plan :thumbup:

they look like a gold version of my ch's and i love mine lots

Edited for accuracy.

Sounds like the start of a wonderful relationship. Remember to wipe them clean before you take them to the tyre shop.

:p

That I would be impossible rob, as they are only a 57.1 centre bore B)

What rubber will you be using Bry? Have you based your decision on price? safety? durability? appearance? grip? ride quality? recommendations?

Right, I'll get my coat..... :D

On a certain person's recommendation, and reading the 3 reviews posted, and bearing in mins I'm a tight wad :doh:

I'll keep you posted as to how effective it is

Ah right. Come on, after splashing the cash on some bespoke rims, I'm sure you could have managed the Jetseal purchase price :yes:

At least two coats though, a minimum of an hour apart. Then some Collinite 476S (if you have any?) over the top, if you want top-spec appearance durability :thumbup:

Hi Bry, ready with the sealant?

Time to get the tyres on and get them on the car.

Need pictures :yes: :yes: :yes:

NIIIIICE Wheeeeels :thumbup:

They look fantastically made and well painted, just the wrong colour for me. I'm just not feeling gold period.

I collected 5 of these today complete with tyres for £650. 3 of the tyres are brand new Falken 452 which are going on eBay unless someone in here wants them.

The wheels are genuine Pescara alloys found in S Line Audi and Golf GTI 30 Edition. The fifth wheel will be on eBay later although it does need a refurb but will come with a barely used 452 too.

ETA - the centre caps seem to be about 65mm with a 55mm insert. Anyone had experience with these being replaced with a Skoda one. Don't fancy usig the Audi ones

Damn.

I was going to get some Rotiform NUEs for the octy but decided against it as I always wanted LMs.

NUE's are gorgeous. I was chatting to Brian from Rotiform about some last year at DC10. Nice bloke.

I couldn't justify the initial outlay on them as I needed new wheels and tyres urgently - I am happy with my reps!

:wub::whew:

I'd say they'd been sealed with the best sort of wax...

Its not slick enough Steve and brake dust sticks to it..Sealer is sufficient and repels dust :thumbup:

Would there be an issue running 3 of the Pescara's I have with a ET54 and 1 with an ET51? It appears 4 of the 5 I have are Audi versions of the Pescara which I was told were the same offset as the VW version of the Pescara which runs on ET51. :wonder:

I wouldn't personally but that's just me.

I know exactly what you mean. Issue is I do have 4 x Audi Pescara's but one needs a refurb so I think I may change the colour on all of them to be honest!

So if the ET51 is a CH029, what CH number are the Audi ET54 ones? CH024?

Yep. Four wheels with an Audi stamp one with a VW
