Well after the mayhem of them being damaged by the 'courier' etc... then my new dish's coming to me scratched etc... etc... check my blogs for the whole story!

Finally my bbs's are made up, done them myself and i think theyve turned out pretty nice, slowly convincing myself to get pureklas to chrome them...

But for now there do, getting the tyres put on this week (touch wood) and then into the bootishop

They fit perfectly which i was worried about, glad i didnt go any wider.

Hope you'll like, comments Q's welcome!

Wow what are those rims i've never seen them before..... :ninja:

Looking good glad there was light at the end of the tunnel. If you were thinking of chroming the centres i would say dont! I know its been done to death but colour coded centres on this would look soooo good the colour of your car would suit them so well too. Just a thought.

spot on mate, i was finkin bout bbs but found summat a lil different for the gti, now its just savin 1100quid den tyres rrrrrrrrr :(

That LOOKS PHAT! The waiting paid off hey, Southall discount tyres are quite good for puttting on strechted tyres, theres 1 guy who deals with them there, propa sound...

If you want give us a shout and wel go down

not bad i guess... lol.

some great lookin dish their dude.

p.s. get some more sealant round them.. never too much!!!

ooooooooooo thats is phat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you gone for normal lips or Radinox ones? I'd love to put Radinox ones one mine.

Personally I always think gold bolts make wheels look tacky and cheap and I'd always go for chrome ones but whatever makes you happy

What centre caps you got for them?

agree with the radinox.. dont agree that gold bolts look tacky.. but not my cuppa tea.

chrome flat caps i believe?

as said on msn dude looks the muts nuts ! guna av a quality stance get some pics up when its on the ground for shizzle

Gold bolts are pimp!

dan mate they look the titties!

Gold bolts are pimp!

.......... think thats kinda what he means.. lol.

Thanks everyone :D:D

Colour coded centres are a no no and its not gonna be Dragon Green anyways, if it was i wouldnt of done CC centres either cos of that very nice dragon green 6n with the pink interior!

I dont think chrome bbs's are over done at all, specially 8 and 9's with sweet dish's to them, granted everyone has bbs's but its all about what you do with them that makes them diffrent imo!

I was mega unsure about the gold bolts, still are but they look so good in the sun, they do look really pimp at the moment so there staying, plus the new paint has a hint of gold flip to it..... so itll look SICK , new centres I'm waiting for, just gonna be normal centres with a chrome badge, just nice and tidy, the dishes are alloy, radinox's are way too exspensive for me, kinda got a plan to buy a set of wide g60 steels for town driving as itl be my daily, and bang these out when i feel the need to! I haven't sealed them yet so thats prolly why they need more sealant lol!

O and tyres, NANGKANGS obviously, 165/50/15 on the front and 195/4515 on the back just to make sure the polos on the ground and in the archs:D

Edited 8 January, 200818 yr by poundie
