Benbiroe Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Just put down a deposit on this Lupo 1.4 TDI. 95k on the clock, one previous owner and only ever serviced by VW. Everything is stock, so will be looking to change a few things over the next month so will be looking to make a few mods.

Benbiroe Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 also been thinking about wheels and I just missed out on a set of schmidt modern lines but came across these remotec 15" refurbished alloys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benbiroe Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) Quick mockup with the Remotec's and some bbs Alloys I've also been looking at.... opinions? Edited August 5, 2016 by Benbiroe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
666DUB Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Good choice, they are excellent little cars, I've had mine over 3 years, love it. Do you not fancy some 17" alloys? . I've got some of mine ( i got some new 17s for mine) they are 7x17 fox fx1 in white with 185/35/17 tyres good condition £150. Only in St Helens so not to far from you..

Sausage Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) Lupos look silly on large wheels, 15 is a good size, 16 if you have to squeeze over some really big brakes, but even then careful wheel choice could limit that as some wheels have good brake clearance some dont.. I'd go for the lightest wheels for reasonable money that you like the look of, but that's just me. Do a remap if you havent done so as it transforms the tdi, a generic 100 bhp file and a lead to to it yourself can be had for £60.

Benbiroe Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Thanks for the offer but 17" is too big and I think I'm gonna put a deposit down on the remotecs today as they seem quite rare. Sausage am I right in thinking these will just go straight on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually they don't if done right, mine looks great, not to big at all, its lowered of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on offset, centre bore and how low your car is as well as tyre choice. www.willtheyfit.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
