when you getting these wheels on mehtt? interested to see how they look!

Hey People :3

The other day i was like hmmm, i need some new wheels for A. looks and B. grip.

I browsed eBay for wheels, 4x100, under £100, under 100 miles and i saw them 'Audi 80 Wheels'. £25 quid bid, £75 buy it now, i emailed him asking if i could come pick them up that night for 50, he said yes :3.

went to Cirencester and picked them up, legendary bloke.

The tyres that came with them weren't too bad but they were 185/60/14's and i tried it on the rear of my car and if i went over a bump, the inner-arch bit would have eaten my tyre wall so i knew i needed 4 something smaller. Because my dad works for Avon/Cooper tyres i got 4 165/60/14's for like 43quid each and then 30% discount :3. Got them all wrapped up yesterday and i can already for the difference. The grip on my steeles (135's) were literally hilarious, every roundabout or tight corner, just slideeeee.

I Sprayed the wheels gloss black and then i went to do the centre gloss black but they came up really dull, so i thought 'allow this' and i went and bought 4 different colour spray paints and sprayed them each a different colour (OH NO I'M NOT ORIGINAL, THIS HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE....IDC).

Now time for a picture story :3 (some of the photos aren't great due to iPhone camera and then awful lighting on the 'proper' photos)

Yes i know my right back light isn't straight or my front bumper, i'm aware of the faults to my own car.

thanks for reading :3

Alex

sick!

fucking sick!

BUT.......... Think they would look better all the same colour

The blue looks awsome, think you should do them all that :-D

Max.

Also , i think you should raise the back up a notch or two.

Get some rake on.

Look alot better IMO.

Hey Guys, had an amazing weekend with my girlfriend etc, party on friday night etc etc.

Just coming home from my local meet and i saw a 5 series bmw with 2 guys in it going the opposite direction eyeing my car up, didn't take that much notice of it.

2 minutes later they're behind me, i notice the little lights underneath they're grille as i think 'this is it' and yes, they turned them on.

pulled over straight away, got baited for my numberplates, and then they realised my car is lowered, with a sub and air horns.

the springs + sub aren't declared, raped again :(

luckily only a £60 fine, no points, first EVER encounter with police even though i rode a moped with a sports pipe etc.

so scary, i know this happens to loads of people but i'm just so so upset.

they said they're going to ring my insurance company tomorrow to tell them my current spec of my car.

:( :( Alex.

Dont let that get you down. Or this - the photo that really does it for me is the black and white one. Makes me realise how clean this one is,but that it omits the fun you've put into it with the colours i probably just sound old!

you'd be pretty naive to think illegal plates and undeclared mods was a good idea, it was only a matter of time till you were accosted.

I've always wanted a coupe/breadvan in this colour, lucky blighter.

This is really nice, only thing I would do is raise the rear up a little bit. Otherwise its spot on!
