what motorsport wheels look best on a s1

pics if poss

need to be readily available

 

Flat face 5 spoke mo,s

 

18" compomotive mo's...if only they where easy to fit & it handled with them on

 

yeah i think the old style ones would look the nuts

dont think i will have joy in getting them to fit tho

 

think you have em all dont you
been done to death but i think comp mo's in a dark shade look the bollox,or rl7's

 

datapost rims would be nice but sadly not very available

 

Gus has a set of these,in his vast collection

 

17x8 ET 35 Compomotive MO 6



Will be getting some better pics outside today.

 

If you own a set of Dataposts this whole thread is a waste of time, NOTHING looks better

 

Get these back on Gus

 

In that case then, datapost with some uber sexy rubber on them.

 

this is the thing, finding a decent size tyre / slick for 17's is bad enough

16's (which the datapost are) is even worse

i might give in and go back to 15's atleast plenty of choice in tyres

 

Got some old style compa in 18 if you want to try them on

 

ooo they still got the tyres on

no harm in trying a

will leave the wallet with the misses so i dont walk off with em

 

Yes mate Tyres are still on them. Your welcome to try them mate

 

would you sell them tho ronnie

 

17x8 flat faced 5 spoke mos in white or black on your car

how wide are the datapost wheels?

 

Everythings for sale for the right price

 

Th2's gus you can try mine on if you want to get some pics

 

i was after yours from phil

wanna roll a pair to toms for me and take a pic

 

theres some flat face comps in the for sale section

 

I've got TH2's fitted. It's a very tight due to the 17" only come in a 8.5 or 9" wide rim. I had to trim a couple of mm's off the inside endge of the arches to stop the tyres catching.

If you decide to go fo them Gus let me know as i can give you the correct offsets for front and back as they are different.

 

Datapost rims without a doubt. bite the bullet Gus and keep trying to find a decent set of tyres and fit them.

Tom

 

Theyre goregeous rims, I love my RL7s but reckon these are the holy grail, definately worth paying the premium for sticky 16" tyres.

 

I'd kill for a set of Datapost Comps

 

What size are you after? Are you after track, road or good for both tyre? Got a few links I could try for prices.

 

they are for track only really

not really fussed about driving on the road, it will be horrible

just spoke to chap who reckons he will be able to sort me out for 17's and my datapost wheels

find out in the morning

 

reckon your gonna struggle with the datapost rims in fairness, think you should sell them

 

im sure image do the data post(compomotive) replicas,

 

why would anyone want a replica????????/

 

for people who cant get there hands on the real thing
and image are the nut sacks anyway

 

Mine are 17" 7.5 wide

 

Edit double post

 

I was going to say I'm sure Will's got TH's in 17 which aren't silly wide.

And Gus, I've thought long and hard about this and just to help you out, I will swap my MO's for your Dataposts.
