[novamadcars]

well finally got my alloys on the car yesterday ive added a few pics would of had more but the batteries died in my camera.
ive got 195/50/15 tyres on but the fing is i cant have any passengers in the back as i found out 2day because the rear tyres catch the little lip on the arches.

:eek: that doesnt look right at all have u even loewered the car yet cos that arch looks mighty high lol maybe if u lower a tiny bit then ittl look right but if your having the car that high with them rims then it looks odd like it does in the pic

[novamadcars]

no the cars not lowered yet and the gap in the arch is because thair was still a 13inch alloy on the front with all 4 cav gsi rims on looks much better will get some more pictures 2morrow after work

[SRlew]

looking good bud, just get it lowered and it'll look better. iv had to take my back two off now as they gave one of my tyres a puncture, so gunna get em sprayed soon

[novamadcars]

when i took the car for a spin after fitting the alloys i thought i was in a monster truck lol

[jbowman]

Does look good with the wheels - even better when lowered.
(1st pic) I thought you'd had an accident at a quick glance.

[projectcoshanova]

just make sure when u have lowered it that u take note for speed bumps cos otherwise ya gonna think after hitting one oh ffs why did i bother lmao

lol

well im not saying what i was originally going to do to them cause i still might do it one day and it'll look wicked!
but am now thinking dark grey.

but do i get them powdercoated or use 2pack car paint?

lew

[novamadcars]

i think powdercoated would look hansom

[dannyb]

Powdercoat is a much harder finish for the wheels, so it will be much better wearing. I think white would look good with the red but you'll be cleaning them all the time!

[SRlew]

mite get a price on getting them powder coated then, or i'll just spray them at my dads workshop with 2pac for free.

iv got a set of tsw's out side which im going to do white and use them for spares or summin or if i fancy a change.

[Adam]

Just normal spray can paint stays on wheels fine, so proper air fed spray gun should be fine.
Watch that 2pak tho, tis nasty stuff.

[Mike.]

now you've got the wheels sorted i think you should give the car a respray.

well my dad has has his own body shop so if i use his 2pac stuff, you get connected to the air feed so you can actually breath likelol
