Not a fan of the orange at all, but the wheels themselves are soooo sick.
I got told banded wheels make the car drive like poop, is that actually true?

cheers dude! personally i think it handles better on these wheels then my mini lights! apart from at hi speed as i haven't balanced them yet so it gets a little juddery <_< as for the colour, i think it looks better in real life. but what colour do you think will suit them dude ?

There well nice and so is the colour, but maybe a dark blue would look better.

Not a fan of the colour, but loving the wheels themselves! :gimme:

I'd probably take them back to bare metal and distress them :thumbsup:

Yeh it probably does look better in person, will you be at uttoxeter this weekend? or stanford next?
and to be honest i don't know what colour would suit it better, cant do them black as well because they won't stand out, the dish is insane though are they still 13 x 7s?

no i dont think im going to be able to make any more shows this year as im trying to save money. and yes they are still 13x7 :)

and Midas MK1 im not running tubes. and they seem to be staying up ok at the moment :/

also glad you like my car so much Muddd001 :)


as for the colour im going to do the centers a different colour to the dish but cant decide on the colour combo as its got to keep with the satin look of the car.

maybe do the centers black and change the colour of the mirrors to orange? or add some kind of orange detail to the car and keep the wheels how they are.
