Black OZ F1's on...

[Edd]

Fancied a change

 

[Edd]

More tyre shine has been applied since these photos.

I also have the centre caps in black, just waiting for the yellow OZ decal.

 

[clio_greg]

tidy that really like those wheels in black

 

[Inferno]

Liking that a lot! Are they standard wheel bolts?

 

[Edd]

Cheers guys.

Yeh standard wheel bolts, they had gone rusty so gave them a rub down when I swapped them over.

 

[Whisker biscuit]

Did you just get them done ?

 

[Edd]

Sprayed them myself with rattle cans, just to see if I liked it. These were a spare set, in fact they are not the renault F1's. Finish to them is quite good though, spent hours rubbing them down, they were in a bit of a state with both curbing and corrosion.

 

[Fletcher]

Smart!!

 

[Curtis!]

Very look, alittle lower though?

 

[Edd]

The tyres are 45's instead of 50's (what it had before), and even though only 5mm has made the arch gap look bigger. It's lowered on Sportlines.

 

[YorkshireDaz]

These look well tidy

Apologies again about today..

 

[nick.]

sounds like you put some effort in by doing them yourself, but it has payed off, look awesome, great work

 

[kevin.s]

look mint bud. love these in black

 

[Edd]

cheers for the the comments.

No worries at all Daz, I should have told you they had been refurbed, nice meeting you anyway!

 

[Tigger]

Now do the car Black to match

 

[Greeny.]

awful, get out

 

[Edd]

Hah, yeh a black car with black wheels would be pretty awful!

 

[Greeny.]

Hah, yeh a black car with black wheels would be pretty awful!

hahaha glad you saw it as me just messing around

 

[Djw Dave]

Lovely!

 

[Whisker biscuit]

Personal choice but i would have matt black all day long.

 

[Limca]

i reckon it looks sweet without the centre caps!

 

[Edd]

I did think about matt, but at the last minute opted for gloss.

Just finishing the centre caps today, so I'll get some pics up.

 

[Edd]

 

[Edd]

With or without tape?

I think I prefer without.

 

[YorkshireDaz]

Without tape for me.

I'm liking the centre caps!

 

[mark989]

where did you get the center caps and oz lettering? I am goign to give mine a spray soon.

 

[Naith]

lovely, s**t tyre tho

 

[Edd]

ordered the centre cap decals off ebay.

Tyres will get replaced if i keep the wheels. but there is plenty of tread on them.

 

[Inferno]

I think I prefer it with the tape, less need for constant tyre blacking. Need to see the whole car to be sure.

 

[jesus]

Looking good

 

[Edd]

yeh i'll do all the wheels and get some pics up.

 

[Timmay]

looking good

 

[Bluebeard]

Are these non-gen 172 wheels? There's no lip round the outside :S

 

[Turkish]

The fact they have OZ racing stamped in the rim should give that away Daniel, how many years did you work as a salesman for Renault?

 

[Bluebeard]

Thats what I mean!

 

[Bluebeard]

This is what they will look like.....

 

[Edd]

no they're not the renault f1's, same offset but needed spiggot rings.

Got them all on now and they are growing on me, easy enough to just take off aswell. But to be fair, a nightmare to put on!

 

[Edd]

 

[Edd]

Don't think I'm too keen on the tape, bit OTT.

 

[whatisjustis]

Lovely. Just paint the side strips to match and it's a winner.
