Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Haha yeaaa when I done my interior in mine I left all the doors and boot open and still was mental! I have windows open in bedroom! But it's just all the dust! 2 wheels almost done now, just need lacquering tonight

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

update

right heres the tyres, old vs new and the size difference is epic! no wonder i couldnt get the wheels to fit without scrubbing, parada's have a pretty big side wall!

2 wheels are now finished your noticed in the bolt holes its messy, thats because i had to mask them up as first time i done wheels the bolts come loose due to the paint

i was reading up onto tryna harden the paint, as saw the trick with putting them in the oven for a bit, i just tried it out for 5 mins on lowest setting and the paint heated up and has gone alot smoother!

will be doing the other 2 wheels at the weekend, and then tyres to be fitted mid next week

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Looking good dude , im hoping my clio dont scrub as its pretty low , im on 45s atm :/ ahh well if they scrub raise it up thats if my coilover are not seized .

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

its because the offset is so low on the rota's mate, the spare wheels im running atm are 50 and dont scrub one bit lol

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Could you get away with 195s? With maybe a 45 tyre wall? Have you had to flare the arches? Or just fold the lip upwards?

Going to look awesome matey.

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

You can get away with 195 45 as ollie on here is running them and he had to roll and flare his arches, mine are rolled but not flattened right back.

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

The difference in tyre size is mental!! I presume you manged to find a place that will fit the tyres?

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Shame there's nowhere closer. Still you only got to do it once. Do they charge extra for stretching?

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

yeaa i no its a bit annoying i have to go that far, but they look like they know what theyre doing, ermm well they charge £12.50 a tyre to fit.

this is them .... http://www.styledynamics.co.uk/

Phone this guy and ask:

Sheer Class Tyres, Blackfen: 020 8294 0777

They're a bit ghetto there and into all sorts of wheels etc, (spinners and things) but they may do stretching!

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project
