Should look smart mate, you will have to upload a pic when they are on :wink:
-
will do mate waiting on my front tyres that i order.
-
hope you got plenty of wheel cleaner lol
-
should do, i got 10mm spacers for the rear and 5 mm for the fronts. with a drop of 35mm :cool:
-
Nice them dude
-
I think they look sh!t, would be better on mine :cool:
-
not a fan tbh, the white blends into the silver too much, when i first opend the thread i thought the whole alloy had just been primed, however, may be more bold in real life and it could just be the pic, also may like the look of it on the car, tbh though those alloys suit a mk4 so cant really think of any colour that wouldnt look good. :smiley:
-
I think they look sh!t, would be better on mine :cool:
:grin:

Will look ace fitted but lots of elbow grease required in keeping them clean.
-
indeed, when I bought the alloys (9 months ago lol) the guy said that he'd paint them any colour i wanted. So its abit of a gamble as you guys know a wheel can make or break a vehicle's looks. But colour could always be changed.
I won't be putting them on until next weekend as my front tyres won't be delivered until wednesday. And I work in Warwickshire Mon - Fri, But I will upload pictures as soon as I put them..
Fingers Crossed heyyy.....
-
Yes I like them.. But as mentioned would be a job keeping them look nice.
-
I am really pissed off that you have them wheels and not me. :angry: :cool: :cool:
-
LoL,, Now i'm really gonna p!ss you off lol,
With them painted in any colour, all in original boxes, and all the centre caps and sprig-gets I paid.
£305,,,
Bargain heyy lol..
Just been sat in my garage for 9 months... :smiley:
-
bargain there mate what size are they :cool: ooops just seen 19 :laugh:
-
Nice!
Real splits or reps?
-
reps 9.5 rears :smiley:
-
Will look ace fitted but lots of elbow grease required in keeping them clean.
just put a decent sealent on them , I have them and weekly cleaning is so much easier now :smiley:
-
what type of sealant do you suggest :smiley:
-
collinite 845 (a wax , but does great job on wheels) , poorboys wheel sealant , planet polish seal and shine , autofinesse mint rims . Or for an expensive initial layout gtechnic C5 will give about a years protection. With a decent sealant applied the dirt washes off easily.
-
thanks for the advice, that is a must as they are painted white :cool:
-
no probs , any of the the above will keep your wheels looking mint , and make cleaning a damn sight easier !!
-
What size wheels are they ? :undecided:
-
Spec.
Fronts 19 x 8.5
Rears 19 x 9.5
P.C.D = 100
ET = 35
C.B = Ø 72
Hole = 5
:smiley: :cool: :cool:

-

:shocked:
You sure?
prob just fitted the alloys and not moved the car yet, needs to move for the shocks to settle
looks very good, got my white alloys to fit when the weather gets better and i was worried how it would look
-
I will take a few better pic's tomorrow as i've been busy all day.
Yes its a 40mm drop on G-Max springs and shocks,,(been on the car since i had it)
yeah that was my concern going with a white alloy but it does make then stand out, especially on a black car..
-
I do agree it needs to be lowered abit more than 40mm...
