Winters Are On

Featured Replies

well got a bit busy this afternoon, i bought some bilberry safe wheels cleaner and a few other bits from alex at elite this week.

before i fitted the winters they were in need of a dam goood cleaning as they were caked in brake dust!

the bilberry brought them up brand new :D

i mixed up a 1:5 parts water solution in a trigger bottle and soaked each wheel, worked round them with a sponge and rinsed!

(was tempted to have a sip as it looks like ribena) :lol:

i have never used a cleaning product like it so easy to use and so bloody effective! if you don't have it i suggest you go and buy some! :p

i was unfortunate not to have my camera being down at my sisters house, so its hard to show before and after but they have never had the backs cleaned before and they have come up like new!

i took off my images and will do a before and after on those to show just how good it really is!

so with the rx2's cleaned i threw them on.... i was supposed to get 4 20mm hubcentric spacers with them when i bought the, but the seller sold the car with them on prior to me taking delivery so they are well and truely tucked in the arches with an ET of 45 :lol:

took a few pics when i got home but will get some new ones up tomo, i plan to space them and whack the ol' girl with the lowering stick once again! pics are a bit poopty, but you get the gist
