[B5 BDJ]

nice work,what colour you doing the centers?

only problem is theres only 3 of the tires i need in the UK atm

does this mean theyre going to be expensive?

 

[couzens]

£50 a tire, so not that expensive i dont think? centers are being colourcoded

[Ali]

Got centrecaps! Also...5stud? :S

 

[couzens]

heres one with a center cap on

and yup 5 stud, got adapters too

 

[Ali]

Didn't know you could get 4 to 5 stud adapters...Knew you could change the centre bore.. Is it going to be safe! lol

Also i know you said you were going to paint the centres...I'd be worried about the quality of finish...

 

[VeinAST]

Should really spray over that Porsche logo

 

[couzens]

Didn't know you could get 4 to 5 stud adapters...Knew you could change the centre bore.. Is it going to be safe! lol

yeah there FK, so i hope so lol i cant see FK selling dodgy products, there for VW's so the center bore is diffrent but only by 1mm so having them bored out.

and yeah but thats nothing 2pac primer cant solve lol, they feel flat as anything already tho, ill probly go over the centers with wet and dry again tho just to make sure

Should really spray over that Porsche logo

nahhh wouldnt want that now! lol itl be painted, but still visible lol

 

[clio_luke]

nice. should look good when they are painted up. are the centre's going black?
never knew there was such a thing as 4/5 stud adapters!

cant wait to see pics of them on.

 

[B5 BDJ]

£50 a tire, so not that expensive i dont think? centers are being colourcoded

cant really picture what theyll look like when theyve been colour coded.

looking forward to seeing them on the car.

 

[Tigger]

[Ian_182]

Sounds like a good result

 

[Vish]

165?? Shouldn't they be about 185 for 50 profile to not mess speedo up much?

I thought the rims looked wider than that lol

I've never tried humphries, any good? I always go to Bracknell Tyres and Battery, going tomorrow for 4x Eagle F1s for £240

Is this they tyre you're looking for?

http://ssl.delti.com/cgi-bin/rshop....kplz=&Cookie=&language=&typ=R-103795&dsco=110

£50

 

[couzens]

^ they are zee ones! thell be wider on the car with the adapters

 

[Vish]

Ahhh got ya! That'll look great. I think I might get spacers for mine.

Why not buy the tyres off the net? Oh unless you mean its on its way already.
