What you think?

[Marsden]

hi guys, just an opinion would be nice

i bought some cavgsi alloys for my black nova and had a look on novaload to see what colour you guys go for. I never saw one with white ones, wanted to be a bit diferant so here we are.........

sorry about the bad light. just got them back today from them been powder coated. I will post pics when i get them on.

cheers Ben

[Christ]

will probably look good, how much were you for powder coating each wheel?

[Marsden]

its complicated but here we go..........my brothers girlfriends dad owns a car spares shop. he knows somebody that is a manager for a powder coating company and he said he could get them done (all 5) for ?50. but he could not get hold of him so we had to go through someone that my brothers girlfriend brother knew (same company). but because he was not a manager and more of a risk he said ?20 a wheel but got the 5th one for free. so to cut it short it cost me ?80 for five wheels

still not bad i thought and they are mint!!!1 :lol:

They look nice, i like it. Would be nice to see them once they are on the car, I've got a set of these for my nova & was consider powder coating them black to go with my graphite silver nova.

[Marsden]

Well i got them on the other day but never got a chance to put them on line because novaload was been upgraded :)

Doesn't look too bad, that :thumb:

[Ste L]

makes it looks 10x better...

funny how a nice set of rims can do that

[Adam]

Nice mate, totally transforms the car :)

[novamadcars]

love them wheels. looks realy good

[Marsden]

cheer for all your opinions lads. it has also transformed the handling aswell as the looks.

thanks ben

[Adam]

Just stay away from kerbs now ;)

[TommySR]

very smart, contrasts well with the car colour

[probert_nova]

yeah it's a good contrast and looks like a totally different car

[Mike.]

i never thought those wheels would look good in white, you've just changed my mind, they look great :thumb:

[Mitchybee]

Wheels really do change the whole look of a car. Your car looks so much better.

How much is that lowered by?

[Marsden]

Hi,
thanks for all your positive comments, not one bad one yet (strange :eek: ). The car is lowered 60mm all round. When the weather picks up and the sun is shining i will get some decent pics of it. But by the looks of british weather you may just have to wait untill PVS to see it for real!!! Thanks again lads/girls keep them coming:)

[novamadcars]

cheer for all your opinions lads. it has also transformed the handling aswell as the looks.

thanks ben

for better or for worse?

[jbowman]

I hope for better as Ive got a set of Nova GSi alloys on with a 40mm drop with my own set of these calibra alloys waiting to go on.

[tappingt]

I found when i put my cav rims on that at low speeds the steering flickers between really light and heavy just seems wierd to me.

[Marsden]

probabley more to do with having decent tyres on now(goodyear eagle f1), but the handling has improved so much. like you say at slow speeds the steeering does seem to find the grooves in the road but it is so much better now. i am really pleased and cant wait untill the summer!!!!lol

[steadman]

Spot on, nice to see cav wheels still mekin an apperence
