I know I've had more sets of alloys than Halfords but its just a thing that has to be done lol
I think these are by far the best alloys I've had on the old Nova by a country mile
Gave the car a good clean inside and out including all the windows, dash, carpets, seats then a good wash outside :thumb:
What do you think of my new alloys ? Personally I think they look mega as there the right size, still Vauxhall/Irmscher wheels and they fill the arches due to them being 6J
Opinions?

Craig - I was toying with the idea of these wheels as I knew my mate had them sitting doing nothing then seeing your car made me think 'I'm for these wheels'
:D

Those wheels look s**t hot on your car mate :thumb:

Cheers fella - They could go some new centre caps
Not sure whether to keep them Vauxhall or go back to original and put Irmscher ones on...

i think some new age griffin centre caps would look good!!
Cheers mate - Comments like that are appreciated :thumb:
no problem mate :thumb:

vaughanmc

wheels arent really my cup of tea mate but the car loks bloody tidy
same wheels as me matey only i painted mine white, suit very nicely to the red!
I think it needs the bumpers done red now to complement the wheels.
vaughanmc
19-04-09, 05:48 PM
If the bumpers are going red I'm going for GSi bumpers and it needs a couple of wee bits tidied up also :)
But that's for a couple of years time I think (If I still have it)
Cheers for the comments
Not for me, worst Irmscher wheels made IMO.
Dont colourcode the bumpers please, too much on a red car imo..
Wheels look good on her bud but i reckon the rear needs dropping another 10mm or so to get the rim in the arch, will look awesome then:thumb:
vaughanmc

Aye I'm not sure on the colour-coded GSi bumpers...Just a thought
I like the way the car sits all round now, I think I've got it perfect
It won't be changing much until I've passed my test anyway :)
Even if you get a GSi bumper id say non-colour coded would suit your car more than coded would!
Car is a credit to you though mate will be good to have a good snoop round her at pv!
vaughanmc

Standard grey GSi bumper with the red stripe for added subtlety (if thats even a word) lol
Aye feel free to have a nosey round the car at any time fella :thumb:
irmscher rims suit your nova really well
something a little different
the spolier and alloys give it a fresh look
good job :thumb:

Wheels and Spoilers really make or break a car and I still think between everyone mines is undecided lol
I personally love the wheels as there Vauxhall/Irmscher items and are nice and wide and not too showy and the spoiler is nice and a bit bigger but not too OTT
I'm glad you like it mate, cheers :)

looks good vaughan..
i liked it on 3 spokes though..
vaughanmc
19-04-09, 10:36 PM
Same here but these were very cheap ;)
I still have the 3 spokes that I might re-furb and keep them as winter wheels for the old bus...
Not too sure though...It just looked crap with the 4.5J's on the front thats all...and handled quite poor lol
