Started spending on my Rallye now !

[gibby]

Well, it didn't last long until I've started spending on my Rallye.  I've just had a new head unit put in, fairly cheap really and I think it keeps in with the styling and age of the car. So one of these.



Then, I've been keeping my eyes out for some new wheels, BBS are nice, but the prices of them these days are ridiculous and most kicking about are 15s anyway and I wanted at least 16s, so I put a bid on ebay last week and I'm awaiting delivery of these today. Maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but I love em. They wont be on until the spring as I'm using my others for the winter for now. A nice set of TH Mono's 8 x 16s with the black detailing on them, with nice stretched Toyo tyres 195/40/16s. Opinions appreciated, both positive and constructively negative. :wink:

Wheels look great!

Not sure about the HU you tight Northener! Should have been on of them Pioneer ones that jv was telling me to buy! That really would be in keeping with the car!

(DEH7000) or something like that!

Compomotive's Gibby? Sooo last week 

Should look wicked.... now you sure you bought the right size? 

[topher]

dont need a stereo in a rallye, it makes its own music

cant wait to see those rims on a red rallye, you going to stick some spacers on the back ?

[gibby]

I know Len but it was only cheap (and with me being northern and all that ) and it's a blaupunkt and I use it to listen to the radio and play CD's through four speakers, so I'm not too fussed about a bit of gangsta boom boom and all that ! As Toph says, you don't really need a stereo in one anyway.

Toph, not even thought about spacers to be honest.

Hey jv, I know, what is it with these compomotive wheels these days ! Hmmm, I think I bought the right size, will the brakes fit in them ? 

If dubmeister still stocked the black powder coated ones in that size I'd have bought them.

HU will be cool, i love having mp3/wma on mine, makes a huge difference not havin to store a million CDs in the car, just keep a couple of mp3 disks and jobs a goodun.

Iv never been a massive fan of those wheels tbh gibby. Iv no doubt the wideness and streched tyres will look class though. And the last time I said that it was about ATS cups Sure they will look great on the rallyee. Stick them on when they arrive though wont ya, just to show is a picture

Looking good, What are you doing with the old wheels then? 

[Judderi]

Personally i think the wheels are the best thing since sliced bread. Top choice that man!

[gibby]

Thanks for the comments Phil, although I doubt I'll put them on to take a pic because basically, I can't be @rsed ! You'll have to wait until the Spring, or get yourself to one of the early shows.

Staying as my winter wheels I reckon. You on the scrounge fielder !

Thanks Ben, I've no idea why I like them so much tbh.
