new shoes on the golf (it was a gamble)

I like them

New style wheels seem to suit older cars so well!

I've seen E46 wheels (same ones Duke had) on an E36 and they look great!

 

[Matt82]

believe me, there are plenty of wheels that make the mk3 look worse than usual. i dont think any mk4 golf wheels look the part on them.

audi tt comps look good, but are common as muck

people put rs4 or a8 wheels on, id rather eat my right arm or set myself on fire than fit those

it was a gamble with the right ingredients, i got lucky though thankfully

Are they not the base alloys for the bottom end A3's

 

[MagicBoy]

The shape's not that dissimilar to to an early A3, looks OK. What did it have on originally? I always liked the multi-spoke BBS on the 16V?

 

[Bunka]

Are they not the base alloys for the bottom end A3's

Certainly looks like it, does it matter if they are?

 

[Matt82]

fox. yup, pepperpots from an A3, pretty sure it was bottom of the range, one step above steelies i suppose.

magicboy, originally it had straight forward mk3 git wheels (10 spoke things) that got changed to the BBS wheels (from a vr6) because they were cheap from ebay with good tyres on.

bunka, i think fox is probably defaulting back to his "class, chip on shoulder thing", by fox's logic, s3 wheels would almost certainly be much better as they are from a "better" model

the audi badges are not that noticeable,

yes... they are

 

[GreenMint]

They work

Not sure on the Audi badges, but the wheels themselves work fine

 

[PardonTheWait]

We like the new shoes!

 

[utajoker]

did you get a hole in one?

boom boom

 

[Phil W]

Who cares? They look good.

 

[DreXeL]

I like them, they suit the car and the car sits nicely at it's current ride hight. Good job

the new tyres are Khumo KU31. impressed with those so far too. ill do a write up on their performance soon. they are impressive too

I had some on the rear of the Integra and was quite impressed with them. I only ever meant them to be temporary but was that impressed that I decided to stick with them, only real critisism I would have is that the sidewall could be stiffer.

Great tyres for the price though.

 

[PardonTheWait]

Where do you live dude? I'm sure I've seen the Volvo about in the Southend area. Seasidey stuff looks familiar too

 

[TripleT]

I like them but I just can't get over the Audi branding.

There's a girl in work with Audi wheel on her bora and most people who notice take the **** claiming that she's wishes it was an Audi etc. I know this isn't the case but most of the general public would think this imo.

 

[Jaaay]

I like the plain ones myself, but they look a bit generic.
I also added tints to your back window

/bored

 

[Sone]

could have shopped some porka badges on for the ultimate in vw chavery.

 

[Scania]

By looks of it, audi branding is still on those wheels.

So what? Are VW not part of Audi? (or is that the reverse?)

They look good regardless.

The Volvo looks, erm, interesting! (race seats?)

 

[Matt82]

mohinder, ive spoken to you before. were both from southend.

the volvo is special (so is the owner). she has gutted the interior. it has a welded diff. it has two fibreglass corbeau buckets.

it goes sideways well

we were as eastbeach.


thanks for the photoshops. i considered tints the other week when the car got broken into, but then its only a golf and only got broken into when some bird left a handbag behind the passenger seat. i like it to look stealthy


thanks fellas

When people say pepper pots I tend to think of something more like these.
