Wheels - Gay or Hardcore - part deux

[telford_mike]

OK. Following the feedback I got in the previous http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=13&TopicID=85491Gay or Hardcore thread, I set to work on my trackday wheels over the weekend. Armed with a can of paint, some wet & dry paper, 100 metres of masking tape and a couple of old copies of the Liverpool Echo....

4 coats of paint and 6 hours later I ended up with this. So, Gay or Hardcore???

laughing is ok - its just a bit of fun for trackdays after all - I was going to do them white but went with the consensus of the forum. Glad I did too

Saw some of those at the Nurburgring last year (coincidentally I think it may have been that actual car).

 

[BenR]

Just cant get myself to like the actual wheel.

Apart from that, the whole theme is good.

Dont break anything with all that extra grip! Didnt a few of the 172s at Donnington run slicks?
