new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 29-03-2013

RE: new wheels are finally on ! - Slam Wagon - 29-03-2013
Looking damn good.

They look like minilite reps to me?
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 29-03-2013
Yeah minilite reps with 185's on front and 195 on the back. Il get a side on up.
Badly scrubbing already so need to roll these rear arches tomorrow lol.
Any advice? I can't get hold of the roller
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - cwspellowe - 29-03-2013
bfh, dont be a girl about your paint
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 29-03-2013
I'd like to keep my paint thank you very much lol
so any tips? a bit has chipped on the underside of the arch. Should I use some hammerite?
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - cwspellowe - 29-03-2013
if its chipped theres no way to fix it, so just get the hammers out and be done with it
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 29-03-2013
But will it not rust?
I can get hold of a roller and heat gun Sunday but I'm for a cruise Sunday and need the car down.
Steel bar?
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - aaron_one - 29-03-2013
Just pull the lip out a bit, I did it on my 106 with banded steels and it gave it the clearance, doesn't damage paint
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - Piggy - 29-03-2013
be careful though if its chippng already...I gave mine a tug when i had some stupid 17s on that were scrubbing and the whole edge of paint flaked off!
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 29-03-2013
I will try and bodge something tomorrow lol. The Coilovers are now right down with helpers in.
Have a bad grinding kinda noise from front left, probably wheel bearing?

It is lowered mate lol might go lower when I get a new beam
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - Rich306 - 29-03-2013
Not keen on them fella sorry
ah well, as long as you like them!!
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 29-03-2013
What you not like? The paint is anthracite but kinda has a purply tint to it which I didn't expect
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - Birk - 29-03-2013
Its only paint, get some mates in the back and get a crack bar out to flare the arches, YouTube it, worked for most of my cars, but I had 9s on lol
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 30-03-2013
Yeah I saw that, might give it a bash. So did you just accept having paintless arches then? lol

RE: new wheels are finally on ! - Birk - 30-03-2013
Well on the estate it never mattered because I painted it, and I never cared on any other car, I mean come on... These cars are worth about £500, just slam it and flare those bad boys.
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 30-03-2013
I want the back down another 20mm or so so will def need alot of rolling and flare
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - ozonehostile - 31-03-2013
i love how minilight reps are becoming more popular, its about time lol
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - puglove - 31-03-2013
Looks good bro, lower & wider arches is a must though
RE: new wheels are finally on ! - rd070707 - 31-03-2013
Thanks mate, I've rolled the arches and it clears at that height now. I plan to flare them a bit and get it a bit lower though. But as it is currently the arch basically sits on the tyre with people in the back. Thicker torsion bars would be handy lol
