It does look 1000% better on those wheels mate... they really suit your car.

Good quality pictures too.

Cheers granty, everyone who has seen it in the flesh, and in the pics, has said there the best wheels ive had on it so far, only took me 8 sets in 16 month, byt i got there eventually


Had to bite the bullett yesterday and buy two new rear tyres. there was nowt wrong with the one's that were on it, infact, they were a very good pair of kuhmos, but there 225/40's, and even after chopping my arch lip on saturday, they were still catching, so bought two brand new 215/35's yesterday, and im pleased to say, the ctaching has gone, but it looks a bit strange with 225/40's on the front, and 215/35's on the back.

I like it with the 225's on the front though, more grip, and they fill the arches more being 40's, plus they have a nearly new pair of GoodYear Eagle F1's, so there staying regardless of what it looks like

Was gonna say, another set of wheels fiddy?

Looking good though, maybe a bit too much black on yours though?

Fiddy

Not enough black rich, gona lamin-x the morrette lenses, tint the back windows, and paint the calipers black. as they say in america, im going for the 'murdered out' look



in all seriousness though, i had thought about adding a bit of red, as black and red are my two favorite colours. so i might paint the lip of the wheels red, and the calipers red.

Fiddy

its a lovely colour matt, you dont see many at all in that colour. its called nordic green, and its one of the rarest colours

UkChris023

both look good m8, love the all black look.. Your 2 looks like mine just a different colour lol, here is mine :





btw - how did you get that rear shark fin to stay on? i bought one off ebay, painted it up and it looked great.. but the fucker will not stay on when i washed it the sticky came off the bottom

Bit of red here and there would look good, maybe a pin stripe too?

That Laminx stuff is horendous, I used it on my car, the light tint stuff and even though I've got xenons, the light output was almost lethal! Ripped it straight off.

Fiddy

Thats the only thing that worries me about the lamin-x rich, morettes have shite lights to start with, the last thing i need is less beam, so maybe ill give the lamin-x a miss

i thought about a red stripe aswel mate if i go down the red route. was inspired after looking at neil's (bullett) EsCos, that has a red stripe with a red lip on the wheels

Fiddy

Your car looks well mate.

As far as the shark fin, mine is there because my car was a company car when new, and had a car phone fitted, and there was a hole drilled for the airel, so my shark fin is actually covering the hole. it was on when i got the car, so i have no idea how it is secured, it never moves, so it could be bolted for all i know.

Haha yea the GSD3's are awesome tyres, used them (and GSD2) on all my cars for years... the grip in both wet and dry is fantastic. I'd think you're in for a fair bit of lift off fun on damp roundabouts unless you've got Eagle F1's on the rear too!!


Cheers,
Grant

Fiddy

Ive been driving mondeo's for years mate, im a dab hand with a bit of lift off oversteer

Red saloons are better

Fiddy

Top pics them Fiddy Diddy.Them wheels are the best ones you have had for the car.I dont think you should do the front lights though cause i think it will look shite.You know me Fiddy Diddy i tell you what i think.
