i still need to get some for mine,

By the Way they might rub on the Arch if you don't put spaces on to start off with, because, my archs have been bashed in so my brother could put 17" alloys on it, so doesn't scrape, but i would have a Trail fit before you sell your Vtr wheels dude,
just a friendly piece of advise,

Adz
P.s sorry for the essay haa xx :P

im sure i'll use spacers for now dude. i do have a disc beam lying about, but im trying to sell it, as i want a really good condition one on there when i do do it.

thing is i cant trial fit them because they havnt got any rubber on them, and i cant get the rubber til iv sold the old alloys. but im sure i'll work something out.

Also, iv been thinking...

Yesterday the puncture in my rear tyre seemed to be letting off a lot of pressure, and with icy roads i didnt want a flat tyre, so popped home and put one of the spare VTR alloys i had lying around (left over from the badger)

Its black with a white lip and to be honest, i really liked how it looked!



Now im deff not going to leave the r alloys on, but i was thinking i might do black VTS wheels, and then get some rip tape and put a white lip on?

be a bit different. I love Adz's car, but i dont want mine to look identical :P

So its something to think about,

thoughts? Black or White?

White lip looks sick mate, how do you do it?

landerboi13 19th December 2009 22:34

black and white looks good man.. maybe get it chopped first though..

Lippy 20th December 2009 00:55

black with white lip ftw!!! something different! White VTS wheels has been done to death as well as white vtr wheels, neither look bad but not exactly original as you said.
I want blue carpet now to go with all my other blue shtuff :(

AHHHHHH!

now im confused even more! seems people like the black with white a lot better?!

And after iv done that its down to the car to whip the seats out, whip the carpet out, whip the centre console out and replace the 2 later ;)

pics to follow!

black with white looks good mate. possibly if you went with rim tape some reflective white would be good. or what about the white wheels with a black or blue rim

dont want a blue rim as i dont think that would really do anything as the car is blue.

white with black might work

but i plan to do my new calipers yellow when i get them and they wont show that well behind white wheels, black on the other hand and they would.

stu-n-shell 20th December 2009 23:01

why not take the theme to the extreme and have white callipers with blue citroen decal on it?

white calipers? hmm, never thought about that!

white behind black wheels?

it is an idea!

anyways

UPDATE!

So cracked on with bits and bobs today.

firstly Carpet before:



Carpet After:



so thats in the car now. still needs some adjusting as it doesnt seem to sit as nicely as i had hoped, mainly by the acc pedal. but hopefully ill sort taht tomorrow! No pics of it in as it was dark when i finsihed!

Next got my plasma voltmetre in. looks awesome i think! no needle!

sorry for crappy phone quality







centre console is in as well, what a nightmare that turned out to be!

but will get pics of it and the carpet shortly!

Opinions?

still not sure about the wheel colour!

EDIT: Also done a quick chop, thoughts?


StephanieLouise 20th December 2009 23:44

Wow i like that last picture! ^ ^ DO IT! :y:

Liam-westcoast 20th December 2009 23:47

vts wheels in black would look quite good i reckon mate

adzvtr 20th December 2009 23:57

car is looking sweet now m8, i like the s rims with white lip, but white s rims are just as sweet, either way u go ur on to a winner, the mirror caps follow the theme of both. let me know how ye get on with the lip, as i plan on doing mine black with a yellow lip.

think im just going to use rim tape mate, as when i did the lip on the r rims it was impossible to get a good finish for me. so wanna do the rims themselves mint then just use tape so i dont mess anything up.
