Love the wheels.

Not a fan of the white bits on the bump strips though.

 

[flat-eric]

painting the wheels white ?

 

[Blacky950]

Thanks For the comments.

painting the wheels white ?

Im undecided at the minute think I might just do them back silver or anthracite and change the badges to standard .

I've got anthracite turinis on my black 172 and was kinda thinking on getting the done in silver to freshen things up a bit, but everyone keeps same just keep as they are

Stuck in two minds :dapprove:

Leave them silver, they really suit it!

Thanks, the white diamonds and bullets went well with the white wheels at the time

Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking it looks fresh in silver!

Cheers, Going to keep them silver then maybe get the anthracite decals that go round the edge so they look standard.

 

[jesus]

Good stuff standard badges would tidy it up nicely.

 

[Blacky950]

Yeah definitely, need to buy some new bullets and rear badge.

 

[Keenan172]

Once the anthracite gets dirrty they look dull but in saying when clean and the car is clean they do look stunning

 

[Adam.]

Looking good.

 

[GSKingsbury]

Deffo keep them silver mate. Looks really fresh on black.

 

[Blacky950]

Thanks For all the comments, I've made my mind up and they are staying silver.

Yeah cup spoiler will be coming after my holiday as funds are a little bit short now ha also thinking of xenon headlights, not sure about going any lower don't want to lose the ride quality

 

[Knuckles]

Pfft, rokkor coilovers are comfier than an RS with cup chassis lol!

 

[Blacky950]

Haha If you say so its on sportlines at the minute so thinking of keeping them for a while.

 

[Knuckles]

You can not believe me if you want but I'd be happy to show you the difference lol (if you can find someone with rokkors )

 

[Blacky950]

I was always told there really crashy

 

[Knuckles]

They're surprisingly not bad, I had them on over a year and couldnt have been happier.

The only problem I had was on a spirited drive on country roads with lots of drops... It kept chucking me out of the seat haha

 

[Blacky950]

hah Ah right I see, theres a lot of country roads around here so might not be good for me! but fancy some Fk koingsports, think I might put the widetrack from a 172 on so hubs will be different so ill have to see

 

[Knuckles]

As long as youre not constantly at the limiter (trying to keep up with a cup ) you'd be fine lol

 

[Blacky950]

hahah yeah Im sure it will be okay!

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

As long as youre not constantly at the limiter (trying to keep up with a cup ) you'd be fine lol

sounds just like me, rev til the limiter flags up lights all over the dash, trying to keep up with proper RS's haha

 

[Wayne-G]

I'll have to give you a ride out in the 1.poo Caleb and show you how the Rokkor/Raceland coilovers are, there honestly not even bad ! My friends standard 182 set-up was more harsh!

 

[Blacky950]

Yeah sounds good wayne, defiantly gonna take a look at them now 2 people have recommended them!

 

[Knuckles]

Lol what's the limiter on yours? It's silly low isn't it? I remember shitting myself at the limiter in my dads old dci 'racing' a corsa lol
