General New Wheels

[Dogfyght]

Haven't posted in a while but have just put my new wheels on! I always like to see what other people are upto and have a look at their cars so i thought a few of you might like a look. She badly needs a polish and i know the tyres need blacking but they're brand new Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 all round and put a smile on my face a lot more than my P7000's ever did! but here's a couple of pics:

Cheers

They look nice, did you paint them yourself or did they come like that?

Bought the wheels from ebay for £40 but had to collect from Pontypool in Wales from Flitwick (Near Milton Keynes) so 350 mile round trip a couple of friday nights ago! I sent them to Lap Tab up in Birmingham and they did a superb job, they were in a bad state when i got them hence the £40! Then off to a tyre place I know, did me a deal, got 'em back, put a few coats of wax on friday night then on the car after work yesterday!

All in 2 weeks!

Gotta love it!

Thanks for the comments

I'm sorry to have to say this but I think you should put the 'alloys' back on.

Mind you........at least you can't see the brake dust

I got green stuff pads less dust and better stopping power :slayer:

Are these a direct replacement Phil ?

My brakes are fine for stopping but I'm getting really fed up of constantly having to clean the alloys

Black suits the colour of the car me thinks.........think you should invest in some lowering tho

Yes mate they are a direct replacement and I couldn't believe the extra braking power they give me I had a brilliant deal on them to from my local factor Roath Auto Parts he is cheaper than anyone on line but got let down by the supplier twice and when I went to collect them for myself and my sons Proton they weren't there but were on the supply list so when they did arrive he knocked a further £23 of the price for the two sets Mine were £42 and my sons £40 had them for £69 the two sets :slayer: he is also mad on modding cars and I was there for 2hrs talking to him surrounded by all those car spares and stuff Mmmmmm heaven
