Ok, I picked up these wheels at a bargain price but not sure if i should get them resprayed gloss black or leave as is? Really like them as they are! :o

So, thoughts?
 
yeh, im thinking leave as! I'll get the 40m apex's on & go from there. I may just respray my current wheels & use for the winter then change over spring time!
 
LOL at how clean that thing is now

100% LEAVE THEM AS IS

Black wheels will make it looks less clean and chavy

40mm+ drop on them will look great

as your painting skills are comming along get them bullets off and smooth them over black bullets will look so much better than bumblebee tack dawn :rasp:
 
Oh i checked the workshop there is 1x standard spring for the 1.2
a brand new top mount
and a washer fluid cap in lime green

Great stuff :dead:
 
cheers peeps :) Jimbo no! lol, i like the bumblbee look ;)

lolz, nothing good then :( Desperately need an rs grill!
 
yeh, i was bidding on one but it went for like £65 in the end! I may just get one from my garage!
 
never seen those wheels before, but will look pretty good, id leave them as they are.

car is coming along nicely btw!
 
Silver they stay then! I'll have to spray the diamonds black of course! Will, u can always come down for a detailing session :) Thanks Davis :)
 
I may do that in the future. Getting it done this Saturday ready for Trax, but maybe towards the end of the year or beginning of next :)
 
They are quite nice them wheels, just leave them as they are. 45 profile tyres are a must.
 
It says megane on the leaflet, matie that i got them off had a ph1 172 but never fitted them.

Can any one photoshop them gloss black with a yellow diamond, perhaps? ;)
 
Leave silver, looks more oem!
I have a feeling it will need slightly more than 40mm to pull them off though!

SOOOOOOOOOOO shiney too... wish i had the materials/knowledge to detail like that!
 
lol, ok ok i'll leave them as is! I doubt i'll be fitting them till early spring so plenty of time to decide on ride height :) Well, i dont wanna trash em going down horrid potholes!
 
They look great as they are 195/45/15's should be ok, your speedo may over read a bit though, about 5mph @60mph iirc?
 
i had them on my mk2 1.2 a few years ago ill have a look for a photo the looked good the way they were id leave them silver.


but do them with yellow diamond it would look mint
