[Bluebeard]

I like it!

Was going to get some myself. Does it look durable? Was it easy to apply?

 

[swirly182]

Bit much imo.

 

[b33fy172]

Is this the stuff that comes in semi circles? If so i've got some orange ones to go on my wheels.

Whats it like to apply?

 

[Charlie.]

yepp thats the stuff! as said above, pretty damn easy! is meant for 17-19" alloys so one strip needed cutting but was easy peasy!

My brother has done this on his motorbike looks amazing, but i would say yours isn't the same colour as your car so I dont know if it looks right? But I still like it

Yeah it isnt the same colour unfortuantly, shame, would look so much better if it was, such a hard colour to find the same shade as though! I'm going to try and find the closest match and put that on, doubt I'll be able to find any reflective stuff though!

 

[maynard]

suits your car, i like it

 

[VibeFliClioGrande]

links above mate! mine are 15", yup, lots of colours and sizes, depends on seller though!

 

[Jason_E]

Not a fan of the Titans I'm afraid I think Super T's are in order but yeh is pretty nice. Makes the wheels look smaller but better overall.

 

[Nik.g]

mate i like it but i just think its should be a diff colour..

 

[@rt]

Ideas on colours then?

If I cant find a colour the same as my body colour anywhere!

 

[Keano]

smart. how do you apply it? does it crease? id do it if i didnt fook up

 

[leeds_182]

Not for me.

 

[StevenMc29]

I had bike tape on my old wheels

I like it on yours although as said the alloys look rather small now

 

[@rt]

smart. how do you apply it? does it crease? id do it if i didnt fook up

comes in quarters, just stick it on! lol, follow the rim of the wheel and press it down! glue takes a min or 2 to set propperly so you can move it about abit to get it right! nope didnt crease at all suprisingly, thought it would be a right pain in the arse but it took like 5-7mins for each wheel it get right.

can get another type that is a roll of tape, and you feed it through some contraption that rests on the rim of the wheel and feed it through, or so I've heard!

 

[ChrisPearson]

as much as i want to hate that i think it suits your car

 

[kie1an]

looks good that mate , keep it

 

[@rt]

athankya! undecieded wether to keep it or not tbh! I do like it but think it would look ALOT better with the right colour!

 

[Daz.]

A world of no!


Just to clarify NO!

NO! NO! NO!

 

[Goders172]

Its a no from me

 

[jesus]

Cool, would've chosen a different colour though.

 

[Meek_racing]

Still wanting proper 182 wheels?

 

[JayK89]

looks good mate

 

[jamesp24]

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

I ammmm! well I will be when im back from hol, need all my money for spending money at the mo




Mixed responce, It'll be off untill I can find the right colour, or if I get the 182 wheels before then it'll be off forever
