New wheels fitted today :)

[LowLife.]

Herrow,

I have been trying to decide on what alloys to get for quite a while and finally decided late last night! Early start and a long drive down to Luton to pick these up, leaves the car looking like this! I am really made up with them! Just need to figure out what spacers to get and to source some custom springs for the rear! All comments welcome!

As long as they are nice....

Bbs reps??

Like the look, but not a fan of reps!

 

[jesus]

They really suit it!

They're Cades Eros, not sure if they are reps of anything?

 

[Dave.]

Sorry realised my post sounded a bit negative, the car looks ace mate, just wondered if there like BBS LM's or something.

Get it lowered, and stance pronto

Oh and well done for being different!

Lol, I wasn't having a go! It already is lowered! I can't go any lower at the back as it's wound all the way down! The fronts can go a bit lower though I just don't know what spacers to look for!

 

[scottiebhoy]

Good on you for being different, looks good, maybe get a pick form front behind so can see how far in the arch they sit? Once spacers are should look spot on!

 

[LowLife.]

Aye I'll take some more tomorrow. It was just a quick photo as I needed to get back lol

Cheers mate! I am really pleased with them! Quite a bargain as well I think!

They are 15's mate. I currently have 195/45/15 at the moment but will probably go for a 165 in the near future for a bit of stretch!

 

[LowLife.]

Can anyone guide me as to what spacers I need and where I can get them from? I remember reading somewhere about spacers causing extra stress on some of the components?

 

[jesus]

You don't need spacers. They will ruin your handling too.

 

[justin_]

i guessing if you put strectch tyres on and spacers\on aswell there be sticking out of the arch too much i reckon 10mm spacers if you want spacers.

 

[JackJack]

Seeing your other posts a couple days ago i was a bit unsure the type of wheels you were looking at would work but they do and it looks good imo.

Camber yo......

 

[justin_]

then if you put camber on say 2 degrees?? your just going to be forking out money on new tyres??:S

I know I don't need them, I would like them though!

Cheers mate! I was unsure when they were being fitted lol! But I think they work ok. I had though about 2118's etc but I wanted something a bit different!

CS high roller.

i would leave the wheels/tyres as they are and get a hidden or something smaller exhaust but that my view??

 

[LowLife.]

It's a 182 mate, I can't hide it!

 

[justin_]

or a side exit??
or a nice 3" twin??

 

[Fletcher]

I quite like them.

 

[LowLife.]

Is this a joke? It's a 182, the bumper is cut out for the exhaust....

 

[justin_]

isit?? fair enough i didnt no that sorry

 

[LowLife.]

Lol, no worries.

 

[justin_]

but apart from the exhaust nice....... actually lush car:approve:

 

[liamjinx blue clio.]

nice wheels! look good, im thinking of something like these for my monaco

 

[Nick172Cup]

LOL, ever run/used spacers?

Run 25mm spacers on the front of the Cup and 13mm on the rear and it definately has not 'ruined' the handling too! It's vastly improved my suspension setup, people need to start not listening to some of the tripe they hear on this forum and try stuff themselves...

 

[maynard]

quite cool

 

[.Kev.]

Nice .....

 

[Rob]

It's the ph2 of my car, awesome!

Nice wheels but they are quite weak it seems (I mullered one already)

 

[LowLife.]

I quite like them.

Thanks man!

lol, sorry for my exhaust.....*sigh*

Do it!

I think I'm gonna try some spacers, then some new camber bolts/shims....

quite cool

I love it!

Nice .....

Ha ha, didn't realise you had them! You trend setter you! Would be good to get some snaps of them both.....but you are down in laaaandan

 

[Rob]

I have no idea where you're from, but I'm guessing not south, due to the sad face.

They suit yours pretty well though, good job

 

[Greeny.]

Looks good mate, I also run spacers on the front of mine without any handling issues.. as does DannyR and has done for months.

I live up in Huddersfield lol! Bit far!

Any good websites to get them from?

 

[edewer]

loved these when i had them on mine needs to be really low for them to work though!!!!!

 

[Christopher]

:S

Anything less than 10mm, you won't feel ANY difference.

The difference in some Turini's offset is nearly 10mm. No one says Trophy wheels handle better.

 

[Silent_Scone]

f**k spacers! I quite like that..
