Is this because you can't get into eurocatz with jap style wheels?  :tongue:

Title: Re: The time has come.....
Post by: Dinky on 27 March 2006, 13:03

im not sure they look that good tbh...they look abit too "bling" like wen you compare mine and toofunkys..his suits the above wheels cos of the silver trim he has and his other touches, not convinced mine would..if that makes any sense :undecided: :laugh:
was contemplating the same wheel colour as i have on now,on the new ones.. :undecided:

get into it?! im co-founder.. :tongue: and dont you start with the porsche 90s again.. :tongue:

Sorry Dinx but I don't really like your 17s.  :sad: Cabby's have to be careful as we have drum brakes as standard on the back and I think they need to be hidden imo so you need to have a thicker spoke at least.  :undecided:

I think that it looks fooking sweet as with the Ronals on, that's my favourite pic so far.  :cool:

I want some of those pimp wheels that topher put the link up to, they are class.  :evil:

Title: Re: The time has come.....
Post by: [han] on 27 March 2006, 13:14

Ronals are what i'd love when i finally get sorted for a cab! i thik they're lush darlin!  :smiley:

Title: Re: The time has come.....
Post by: Dinky on 27 March 2006, 13:18

they cause more problems than they are worth in the long run, handling/clutch etc wise..hence me deciding to change..
im not really that @rsed about showing the drums, was just the fact that with these, was abit of a feck on with the wheel bearing covers, so we found this weekend :rolleyes:

ive always like the ronals, however, i dont think they suit it on that pic, they are gettin a tad too common so to speak (before anyone has a go) and im more of a modern wheel than out else..plus i wanted summit abit different to everyone else tbh..

i cant view that link off chris :sad: stoopid work!

Dinx :kiss:

Title: Re: The time has come.....
Post by: Dizzie on 27 March 2006, 17:37

How much do you wanna spend inc tyres.

Id look for a set of 14x7 on a 205 45 tyre, there the right size for a mk1 imo.

Try www.dubmeister.co.uk mine are on there rsl cults look awsome and still quite rare.

Also like Borbet T, revolution modern, and the steffan cups.

Dont think any of em are particularly cheap though, failing that clio 16v phase 1 wheels suit the mk1.

Well thats what i think anyway, Dan.
