Monaco On Monzas

[Edd]

Washed, polished and waxed my 172 today and thought I'd try on some Team Dynamic Monzas that I had bought. They're 16 inch.

Wasn't too sure to start with, but they have grown on me now. Make a change anyway.

Think some Eibachs will be purchased in the not so distant future.

Sorry the pics are a bit dark, comments welcome.

If a mod wanted to make pics part of the thread that would be good.

Looks nice, lower and it will be sorted. Much nicer than standards, I had a set on my old ZS.

Think i prefer standard wheels mate

 

[Si]

paintwork looks superb. good job.

If it had REnualt centre carps it would look good, similar to the Vee's wheels

Edit. Lauren beat me to it

There you good bud.

I think you need some better pics to justify them. But it looks a nice car!

Sam!

I didn't expect to like them as much as i do, still undecided which I prefer these or standard. Just never seen them on a 172 before so thought it was worth a try, and 10 quid for the required spiggot rings.

As for the centre caps i like the old style pins, couldn't really fit a Reno badge on them.

Looks good, just need to be about a yard lower.

Yeh pics arnt too good, it was just getting dark and was difficult without tripod. Could do with being on level ground aswell, it does look high.

 

[Tigger]

I like it
Some lowerage - lovely stuff!

Not keen on the wheels but i love monaco's

 

[Goders172]

Love the car mate, not keen on the wheels personally, but looks good.

 

[Edd]

Whats the difference between Eibach sport lines, and prolines?

I think I prefer the standard wheels, but originals havn't got a mark on them so these can maybe be my winter wheels. 2 contisports on the front and toyo's on the back, all new so might aswell get some use out of them.

Thanks for the comments.

 

[Goders172]

Sportlines lower slightly more than pro's, but i think Pro's are better for track use. iirc

however I have sports on mine and am really pleased with them, much improved handling, i think the majority of people on here go for the sports.

Cheers Goders

Needs hitting with the lowering stick but other than that looks pretty good.

 

[Edd]

It will be getting hit with that very stick soon.

Is it a fairly straight forward DIY job to change the springs, I know in theory it is but when I came to do it on my punto several bolts had siezed and had to be heated to get off. Anyone had similar problems with a 172?
