LiamD Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 I think the ones you have look good.I'd remove the **** flaps, get it lowered on coilovers and maybe space them out a touch so they fill out the arches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onetouch Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 As above, Ebay or forums also Dubmeister.co.uk. Search readers rides, plenty of inspiration there!I like the ones you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piratefleet Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Then it's settled. the ones i have will stay cause i like them too! tis already lowered a bit but i think it's on springs (how bad is that - i don't even know for sure!!) so might look into coilovers in the new year!spacers - i don't know a thing about them.. are they easy? or are they a minefield of options - some of which are correct and some of which are not?Cheers for the comments so far by the way!

EaRNi! Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 as long as you go for hubcentric ones you just choose what width you want and buy them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piratefleet Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Sounds pretty straight forward =]no doubt i can manage to **** it up tho! do u just take the wheels off and stick them on then put the wheels back on?

DanK Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Try venom motorsport, they should stock some.Also if you were going to go for some smaller wheels ide definatly get coilovers, standard ride height and some 13's will look poo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piratefleet Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Cheers for that. i had a look at their page and read their blurb about spacres and to be honest im still a little confused. they talk about a few different typed, A, A Centric, B Centric and B+ Centric... i read what these mean but have no idea which one is right for me... or how big i will need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Green Giant Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 it seemed to be very easy to change your mind about getting new wheels? why dont you call venom motorsport and ask them what you need, they are the ones that sell them, they should know exactly!
