Matt

Like it! Good effort for trying it. I have considered buying those. Tbh i dont think they look quite as good as expected, maybe its the white, but still suit the car pretty well. Also got to say its slightly too nose down for my taste in some of the pics. Maybe tweak the rear arches a little and get it sitting a little lower at the rear :)

Love it! Well done for trying something different! :)

I really do like that!! does look the bee's knees!!!

Thanks for the recent comments guys :) yeah i know its slightly two "slanted" but iv had to raise the rear because it srubs and im going to raise the front maybe 1 or 2 threads which wont make a lot of difference, just give me a little bit more arch and splitter room :)

As for the exhaust, its an absoulte discrace. Had a mufflerectomy on it and it was shocking, so had to source a standard back box and this was the only one with the tip off. not sure what im going to do about it but o well lol :giggle:

*cough* Milltek *cough* :D

I approve :thumbup:B)

Im a fan :thumbup:

They look brill :thumbup:

I was looking at some similar Merc wheels but was told Merc wheels wont fit.

What were you thinking, you loon, who do you think you are with it looking like that eh ? Looks like its on bricks.

Just pulling your chain lol :)

Looks nice and definitely different, so who cares what others think. They don't have to like it.

Clearly its what you want, way different look from standard and thats what you wanted to achieve,

so thumbs up

Anything will fit if you want it too mate :)

Mine are 5x112 so just need the adapters from 5x100 so i went for 15mm front and 25mm rear, then spigot rings to stop any wheel wobble, and thats it. jobs a fish :)

As for the milltek mike, i would really like one but only want the back box really, as i have a decat alread so i doubt replacing the pipe between that and the backbox would be worth the money. Any chance you could PM me a price for just the backbox if its available?

Appreciated very muchly :)

Looks even better in the new pics mate.

Great stuff! :thumbup:

I'll have some wheel pics of my own up on here at the weekend.

My alloys are done now but I haven't even seen them yet.

They were ready on Monday but I'm down in London working all week

so the other half picked them up for me. ( What a Gal...)

I'll lay eyes on them on Friday night but even the Mrs says

they will look special once they are on the car and she's usually

disinterested about anything car related.

The little minx won't even email me a pic,she thinks it's dead funny

that I want to see them so bad.

Went for very dark metallic grey powder coat then laquered with pin head sized

silver fleck. B) Just wish I could see them :'(

Brand new OE centre caps and Team Dynamics flat valves all ready and waiting.

I'll be at the tyre fitters at 9am sharp on Saturday.

Having my own van is handy too for jobs like this.

Then the steels are going up in the loft until late November when I can give the winter tyres a proper test.

Thanks Garry. Glad your wheels are sorted, even if she is keeping them a secret from you :p

Having a few issues with the "square" shoulder of the rear tyres (205) so im taking them into the tyre place tomorrow to have 195's stretched on like the front, then using the tyres that come off to go on my steels as well as two proper winter tyres for later in the year. Cant go wrong for 2x continental part worns, 5+mm of tread, fitted and balenced for £35 for the pair :o

Im happy with that.

Either drop a pic on this thread Garry or start a new thread to whore the wheels mate :)

Sweeeet
