Silk 12th April 2013 19:15

got these off Mr miller the other day, only got one disc on as was pissing down & rounded the star screw that holds disc on, have a crack at it tomorrow.

Silk 24th April 2013 17:06

thought id take advantage of the weather & spray up a wheel :)

Silk 24th April 2013 17:50

would this be classed as illegal?

Silk 25th April 2013 15:58

put these on today to see what they look like, im not keep on them, needs spacers, any views?


dobsd001 25th April 2013 17:54

Further back pic? I think they suit mate, like them!

Silk 25th April 2013 18:12

thanks, ill get one up (not a very good one tho), i prefer my vts's, might spray them black, there starting to flake :(, or florescent orange?

Silk 28th April 2013 16:24

had a busy weekend, been spraying doors on my dads van lol, while they dried i primed my show cage, see the rain coming so decided to call it a day spraying, heres the cage (thanks to Nyx)

Silk 28th April 2013 23:48

views on these, another pic further above, my mates going to try oz's on hes corsa weekend, i prefer these teamd's, bought another set of vts's to referb, not sure to sell or keep.

Silk 29th April 2013 00:23

these or keep the smoked? i forgot i had them lol

Silk 29th April 2013 00:34

old pic but one of my faves i have.

LSOfreak 29th April 2013 00:48

them rear morrettes look awful mate dont do it lol

also i think black wheels hide the lines of the wheels. Looks much better with wheels you can actually see like that last pic ^

These wheels look good, need some serious spacing mind, and that gash in the tyre even if it is legal would greatly increase your chance of a blow out. personally i wouldn't drive on it.

tom_vts16v 29th April 2013 08:51

the black 5 spokes look very nice mate might sell my 205's for a set :P

Silk 29th April 2013 11:18

yes mof i wouldnt tempt it either lol, its a shame its a pretty much brand new tyre.

tom, if my mate doesnt buy them i might be selling lol, there oz cronus (i believe)

tom_vts16v 29th April 2013 11:37

ok mate drop a pm if there avalible :P

Silk 29th April 2013 11:41

np mate, i have some 15s i need get rid of but by the time i refurb them i wont get anything out of it :(

tom_vts16v 29th April 2013 11:45

im the same i have a set of 205's i had them powdercoated black then 4 new t1r's and wont be able to sell them as they owe me too much :(

Silk 29th April 2013 11:54

might bite the bullet & get rid, taking up space, got some vts's coming, ill refurb them either to sell or keep, use 205's for track?

tom_vts16v 29th April 2013 11:56

could do but wanting something abit lighter for track really

Silk 29th April 2013 11:59

yeah good point, that'll be the usual team d's? then.

tom_vts16v 29th April 2013 13:23

would on go for td 3's mate not a fan of 1.2's too many about

Silk 29th April 2013 14:20

mof 29th April 2013 14:30

Ive got a brand new S-drive in my storeroom with a little slice in cant bare using it, cant bare to get rid! those speedlines ive just bought are alot lighter than i expected.

DavidsVTR 29th April 2013 19:26
