Schmitt modern lines are the way forward, they are like the wheels on the white car but the spokes curve towards the outside of the rim the cut back in, hard to describe, but they are the best one piece euro wheel imo.

Google search them and they come up on the images...

Looks like?



Nicole, if you are able to drop the front 20mm physics states than the exhaust will scrape less ;)

dont like those wheels either, like xsi wheels blown up a bit :p
and bick, you are right lol..cus itll be level rather than bottom down :D duhhh
really want to get it down soon, does look funny now
and the drivers sides 10mm higher at the back but no-ones noticed :p

What suspension you got on the front?

well its looking pretty standard like lol, 60mm springs but thats all but think theyve been on a while as its pretty low compared to bens which is 60 at front too.
ben was talking about making some coilovers but i dunno

Can't really go wrong with the GAZ gha coilover kits, seem to be available for about £250-£300 if you keep an eye on 106oc for group buys etc

Tbh nicole, i think it would be a shame to change the wheels, they really suit the car and maybe when its abit lower and even put some spacers on, they will fill the arches more and look perfect

yeh was thinking gaz ones, got more important things to get first so will shop about for coilies.
no way im putting anymore spacers on it,
ive got 20mm on the front and 35mm custom ones on the back, i dont trust the 35mm ones as it is lol!
borbets are just done to death now, i only put them on as i didnt have anything else. ive got two options for wheels now but its a secret :D dont want anyone copying :oops:

Why don't you do what you was originally going to do with each wheel a different colour?

What about a set of gotti's, you would be really differnt then...

i like it has it is nicole, it looks belting already, but i no wot you mean with there being lots of borbet about nowdays.

i think it looks great on the wheels you already have to be honest. not so sure on the red badge tho.

your car is stunning now nicole :D

looks sic apart from the alloys imo (y)

The larger size modern lines do that yea 16" and above
I'm pretty sure that White saxo is on 15" ones and the spokes run straight on them

Yea the modern lines are different to the ones on the other white saxo, there looks like there is less of a dish but they actually are wider than the origonals.

i think this car is one of the nicest about.. keep it has it is, well maybe lower front a bit more but looks sweet in all white and i like the red badge

yea the larger sized modern lines are like that in your link

but that white saxo is on modernlines the smaller sized ones differ to the larger ones

like that

tbh i think its more to do with the offset and the angle of the spokes but the diameter seems to be the largest influence in what ive seen
14" ones allmost look flat across the spokes

well whatever they are, theyre fugly wheels :D
and cheers guys, i know what wheels will replace them but wont be for a while and theyre very different :)

oh what are they ? tell :P

well i dont think ive ever seen them on a saxo, so i'll keep it a secret before someone richer does it before me :p lol

some say that about borbets though ;)

well more have said they like them on my car then dont
so i dont care ;)

love your car nicole after seeing it on saturday in person i thin my faves on here

have to agree!

I'll put my guess in now...BBS LM's? Or Gotti's FTW :y:

Your car is absolutely fantastic.

:O:boxing:

this is beautiful, everytime i see a fine example like this i wish id have bought a Mk1, they are really growing on me.

One of a few cars that I actually like on this site, alot of hard work has gone into this by both you and Ben :)

cars looking very nice on the borbets..
dno your thought on rim tape, but a nice red strip round the borbets would look very nice imo, with the red chevrons, someone on here had a white saxo, white borbets and done it, cant remember who though, and it looked very nice, just a thought..
but cars looking very nice anyways :y:

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/sho...hlight=borbets pics near the bottom off the 1st page, think really suits the car, imo would look goood on yours

yeh thats jamies stokesy, saw his just after id done mine! lol i dont think the red can stay as its going to clash with my engine bay plans...

bored so thought id update with a before, during and after so you can see how much work ben really has put into this.
honestly this car was a mess..
before, complete with gay petrol cap and cruise stickers galore:






during:




have loads baking in the oven but not on this laptop.
wet flatting:

and youve seen it now :D

Well impressed with your work Ben tbh....looks done to a very high standard.

thanks james :) will mean alot to ben coming from you
ive now got to have my westie engine till ive got vtec as its out my westie and will only be chucked out.
the vtec is also out now, but gotta save up..

westie just started taking it out
my del sol :(

anyone have any ideas (bar red) for the badges colour as theyre going to clash with my engine bay so need changing :(

Satin Black chevrons.....or even colour code them to make it all subtle....

Rainbow coloured badges! Then it can clash with everything!



Or Satin Black...

FLOL :y:

satin black would be Naiseeee :y:
