Went out to pick up my arches last night and also got taken for a spin in a riches 300BHP Mk2 golf. Its rediculious, the turbos so harsh your neck hurts and it eat a porche on the way home. The cars sat on coilovers and anti roll bars and can take a round-a-bout at silly speeds.
Anyway. The arches go onto the car somtime next week, But while there we wheeled out Riches race wheels (usally the car sits on 10inch wide deep dishwheels but he keeps these as track day spares) just to see what they look like on mine. Figured id post em up and see what you think.

What do you think of the black / polished rim combo? Incase your having problems remembering what it looks like with the white alloys theres a photo below ;)

that looks soo much better fielder. black rims go well :cool:
ive sent you a PM about something too :wink:
-
Hard to say really as the pictures are a bit too dark.
-
Those black rims really improve it mate.
Dont get me wrong i like the white ones but your cars so black and shiny, shiny black wheels would really suit. Like that they hav a little silver on them too.
-
hmm its defintally got me thinking. Possibly some 16 inch deep dish rims with a polished lip and black inner section :cool: The car needs lowering some more first tho, Sitting in riches car last night made me realise just how high mine is.
-
what a plan, both deep and black sounds mega!
Keep it up mate
-
the dark rims look awesome.....do it, much improvement over thw white ones :smiley:
-
Can't see the pics very well as they are too dark, but from the little bit I can make out I think the black rims are a vast improvement over the white ones, gives it a meaner look imo. :smiley:
-
yeah i'm liking black rims at the moment.............
-
can't see the black wheels properly......
You say Rich's car a porsche eater... might have to put that to the test Fielder...!! :grin:
-
oooohhh.. do it do it!!!!
-
black wheels do give the car a more aggressive feel i reckon! you should try to prise the wheels in the of your mate for a cheeky cheap deal him bing your mate and all :laugh:

Hes an Ex royal holloway student so he knows the roads of Egham and Winsor well ;) Give us two months and i will be more than willing to put it to the test ;)
-
^^and they have bare all speed cameras :grin:
-
Urm...They have one on the way into winsor from staines and two at the road works on the M25......Appart from that theres nothing, and the country lanes are great, never seen a cop car on them, Mind you police cars arnt really an issue when you have a 300BHP 20VT lol
-
Is that ' RICHGIT ' that your talking about.? :huh:  ÂÂÂ
If it is he should change his name to ' MAD DOG ' ,as on Sunday up at the Mimms he was out chasing cars again ( and wiping the floor with them  :cool: ) Scooby , Porsche owners etc  BEWARE ! that Golf is bl66dy quick :shocked:
-
ahhh...the dreams.....
You gotta watch for the V70's tho, tuned to the tits...had a mate work in the volvo garage and they got some serious kit under the bonnet

Yeah! He was doing that last night with me in the passanger seat sh!tting my self and trying to eat a 12 pack of krispy kream donuts!
-
alright. new to this forum. first thread ive read. really liking those black alloys. are they stock or painted ? what make ?
-
Couldnt tell you, Rich painted them himself i know that much and they need specilised bolts and tools making them VERY hard to steal which is always a bonus. Im thinking of getting some rims in that style but different to the ones in the photos.
-
what good websites are there to but nice alloys from ? havnt found anything decent myself.
-
im 95% sure those are kosei seneka racing wheels, same as i have on mine which i will be selling as soon as i find suitable replacements :cool: they look like 16's though, mine are 17's ... and yes you do need a special key to get the wheel bolts out, which can be a right pain in the aris !
ps. fielder if rich's car gives you a hardon.. you really should come along to E38, some way more mental golfs will be there i guarantee it :grin:
-
not only that but another nutter to add to the collection will do absolutely no harm atall!
Come on fielder, ten pounds for a whole weekend of cars beer and...
...er...
....lots more beer by the sound of it!

1/4 mile race is all that is required to prove the point...  :grin:
yeah Fielder - get yourself to Ed38 mate.... come and see the Porsche powered VW campers.... all I can say is wicked....
-
Gotta see if the cars on the road for it, A rather large cash injection just made its way to me (£400 owed to me by my girlfriend, £570 worth of shares from when i worked for tescos, £200 worth of unpaid wages from tescos and £850 after tax wages from my new job) So expect to see the golf back with new seats, new arches, new 1/4 panals and new coilovers :wink:
-

-

-
