New Wheels for the Boost Bus Please.

[Scrooge]

Right my wheels are battered and I want to get some new ones. If I don't find anything I like as much as these I'll just refurb them. The thing I dislike about the current wheels are they're seriously heavy.

I'm sure most of you know the car but here's pictures for a bit of inspiration.

Refurb, they look fresh and non chavvy.

HTH.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Learn how to park, doofus.

PS: It's not a bus, it's a barge.

HTH.

PPS: My wheels will fit your car....

 

[Sir_Dave]

Just get them refurbed.

Actually, scrub that, they look fine !!

 

[Scrooge]

I've been looking all morning and I can't find anything that looks better tbh, like you say they do look fresh and non chavvy. I just wish they wasn't so heavy!

What about the wheels they put on TT's etc? The 18" RS4's?

Or the newer audi style wheel?

Personally I'd go for the wheels on the LCR as they are seriously nice, but as you said, they're ££££

I bought them like it, but now the scratches have filled up with brake dust and the paint is peeling.

I want your wheels lol

When you get close they are rank, for some reason they look great in photos.

I had the RS4s before and they just didn't look right, plus they are just as heavy

I only want silver wheels so the LCR will be out the question as they look wierd in silver.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Venoms.

Definitely venoms.

 

[Scrooge]

Lol retro.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Or..

 

[Scrooge]

I reckon those top ones would look awesome tbh.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Indeed.

They're

GTRs.

 

[Russ_16v]

on a serious note, refurb them mate

 

[Bluebeard]

I like them wheels, but not on your car. I think they look out of place.

Sorry. x

 

[EllD90]

Get some Cupra R wheels from the same era, in a bright silver.

Like so: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seat-Leon..._tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item43af5fb48a

 

[Scrooge]

Russ, I had those on a Nova GTE I once owned

The ones that are on it now? I see what you mean, they don't mine like they matched Tom's Bora.

I like them and I reckon they're lighter too.

Scratch that I thought you meant the starfish ones.

 

[Revels]

How about a new car?

 

[Scrooge]

How about a new car?

Find me one that does everything mine does or better for roughly the same price and it could be an option.

Cheeky git.

 

[Ian_182]

The cupra R versions from the newer model.They look quite cool.

 

[Bluebeard]

How about a new car?

Faster than yours: Check.

Built better than yours: Check.

Better spec than yours: Check.

Cheaper to run than yours: Check.

Bigger than yours: Check.

Cheaper to tax than yours: Check.


I'd say he's got a pretty good car you skinny island dwelling homo.

[Scrooge]

Diesel only dude.

Plus if I got a petrol I'd be properly jealous of the noise that Rob's Z4 makes as that can't be replicated on the 3 series iirc.

Are they C4s replicas?

 

[Gally]

I don't understand wanting them lighter? You're hardly running quarter miles!

Can't believe you're not Blue Oval'ling it for CSS!

 

[Bluebeard]

I've got no idea mate. I just had them in my watching from when I was searching for wheels for the wifes beetle.

 

[Scrooge]

The reason I want them lighter is because they are silly heavy, like really silly heavy and it can't be doing any good to the gearbox etc Plus I fancied a change.

I'm not brave enough for the blue Oval I want

Want to swap the arch gap wagon?

It can, my estate sounds like a boombox at low revs. Straight 6 ftw.

Lol @ Boombox!

That's the thing with the the Z it is ultra silent until you give it revs, which imo is perfect.

And mine. Exhaust flap constantly open ftw.

I like the RS6's but the ones i had on my Bora we silly heavy.

BBS CH's would look AMAZING

 

[Goodj]

Octavia vRS wheels?

 

[_Tom]

Mmm stolen someone's sig but..

I've always thought about CH's, what are they like weight wise?

The RS6's really are shocking when you go to pick them up.

Could be an option with the VRs wheels mate, not sure what they'd look like though.

 

[Goodj]

The challenge will be to find wheels that aren't "motorsporty".

'tis semi-luxo-barge, not race car.

Kinda like yours as it happens

 

[Ian_182]

Mmm stolen someone's sig but..

Now they look great.

 

[Gally]

You can have mine mate. You car plus 4k?

Mine were about half the weight of the RS6's. Maybe less. No joke.

 

[Scrooge]

Those CH's look great!

Were yours reps Tom?

Goodj- I thought you meant the older ones, never seen them on a Toledo before. I think think the newer ones are 5x112 not 5x100.

 

[Scrooge]

You can have mine mate. You car plus 4p?

Ok
