[cat171]

umm nah !

 

[jesus]

it's only the wheels (and the fact that it's a phase 1) that make it ugly...

 

[DamoWales]

Quite like it.

 

[Struggler]

over 2 grand for wheels?? TSW wheels??

set of magnesium wheel, that really will make a difference wouldnt set you back that much.

and 1.2k for shocks and springs, hmmmm

 

[Fred@BTM]

koni shocks and springs? news to me

oh yes thats right, standard shocks are koni and springs are H&R (IIRC)

 

[Edd]

Not bad for 8k

Eibach.

Thats near where i live...Weirddd! Sure that was in Banff too!

 

[fUbAr]

used to belong to a member on here, who put the wheels on it.

I think they look great!

Colin G's old car ?? He had that then the black mk2, now a 3.2 TT.

That mk1 is always for sale.

He's got an M3 Cab now! Suits his Toni and Guy haircut tbh!

Not sure it is his either...There are a few with those wheels! Mind his had silver bits on it.

 

[cat171]

Maybe it's not his old car then, i'm not sure. I know R-tec in st albans had those wheels on their one years ago, it could be that car ? It does always seem to be for sale though.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

That was being sold privatley in Aberdeen not so long ago, id rather it be standard or a Trophy

How on earth do they fit tho! ET 6 and 60 are the offsets!! I can't get any aftermarket wheels to fit!

i think the wheels look like spiders... not a good look. i actually prefer the look of the phase 1 over the phase 2. looks more original and always reminds me of the clio v6 in Gran turismo.

 

[cat171]

Ali, no idea I think they are specially made for the vee. I'm not a fan, for aftermarket vee wheels compomotive trophy race car wheels are where it's at 3k a set though

182 trophy ?? If so, totally different cars.

 

[scott1205]

Bought PS3 and GT4 eventually and it's only a STINKY ph1 in the game! Mass disappointment! Least it's Blue Illiad! lol

I dont like the MO's...I like the Cromodora's providing someone souced centre caps and they don't fit very well! See James's! I wanted 18in CH BBS or Turini's! BOTH FAIL!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Obviously the Phase 1 V6 and the Trophy are different cars!

Im just saying for what hes asking (and it certainly aint cheap) and the miles are considerably higher than other examples i have seen. I personally would rather have a trophy

 

[cat171]

^ yeah miles aren't on that cars side, the owners only appear to keep it for a few months too (unless of course it never actually sells)

am not realy a fan

They have one already, same a normal 172 though. Loads of mk1 owners have fitted the mk2/182 trophy one.

 

[Ali]

Defo needs mk2 parts!! Lights, spoiler...And grills. (Mine are forsale)

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I much prefer the Phase 1 if im being honest, atleast when there standard and kept religiously clean

why cant you get CH's on it? Why are you so limited for wheels.

CH would be the sex!

lowest offset is 35! and highest is 50 i think...

The offsets are different front & rear which doesn't help things.

 

[kpowell911]

What offset do you need then?

 

[kpowell911]

The offsets are different front & rear which doesn't help things.

I didnt think that would matter when buying BBS rims, When I ordered my mates LMS for him, WE ordered 4 wheels individually, Rather than as a package with tyres so we could have 4 different offsets if we wanted? ITs only the same as cars have wider wheels at the back with a different depth dish etc.

If they need a lower offset than avaliable, Im sure they would make some in your offset? its not like they are a backstreet wheel company like Wolfrace or ripspeed.

Anthracite CH's with a Blue Lip, Anthracite Pods , And Recaro Pole Positions and I think it would be one of the first V6's id like to own!

LOL! To get a set of Speedlines made up in ET6 and 60 it was going to be 13k LOL.........Next question. Have you seen what a vee front wheel looks like! HA! imagine welding about 50mm of spacers to the inside and you're about right!

 

[kpowell911]

ET 6! is that what the front is!?

I've just ohoned my mate (used to work for BBS) for you guys, He basically confirmed what you just said Ali, Possible, But Pricey, In other words no!

On the other hand, He has some 18"x12" and 18"x10" BBS 3 piece Porsche 996 Turbo Race Wheels With Race Tyres yours for £3k, Cost £14k new lmao

 

[jack_davey]

looks like a pile of w@nk tbh

 

[Reyes]

[.GAZ.]
