i got something for the car
certainly do.
enki light weight
Yup that looks good.
235f 255r goodyear f1
the biggest problem is going to be this. i fitted some hawk race pads and polished the wheels at work. by the time i got home they look like this
and those pads didnt want to let go of the disc till it went blue :yes .
thanks guys for the positive comments. i wasnt too sure about white but i like it now and so do most people. the only prob is that dust. they might have to go met grey.
If you dont like \'em I\'ll find a home for them! They look the dogs dangly\'s mate! :god

What happened to your stock wheels?
What condition were the center caps in?

you mean my drift wheels. centres are nackered
Love the wheels apart from being white . . lol
Think met grey would look better ;)
Ooh they are nice :yes - think white wheels and red cars always go :D
Do you have any plans for side skirts or rear bumper? think they would set the nose off nicely :)
I do like the colour coded spoiler . . . . *kirsty goes off to think about it* :yes

prob not. i would get the full gp sport kit as its quite suttle but its cost puts me off. when i spin off the track/road it would be better to phone tim for a cheap second hand bumper. im still an fc owner dont forget :D

:) i think white would look better but grey is more practical. i had a gsxr with white wheels and they were always covered in brake dust. exactly the same with these. i painted them black :rolleyes: it never looked as good but at least you couldnt see the dirt.
ill live with it for a while to see if i can be bothered to clean the wheels every time i get out. :reallymad
who can do that photo shop stuff. id like to see some different colours.
Nice!!!!
shame whites such a pain to keep clean as it looks well !!!
Chris
Keep them white but put so much wax on them the Brake dust don\'t stick ;)

I figured as u had the nose the \'spanking it to pieces flying off a track\'-bit wasnt a consideration ;)
staying on the black stuff was plan A but my near miss at the ring showed up a flaw in the plan :D
once its painted it will look good. :yes
looking good jay, your forcing my hand to get some wheels now............ ;)
rims made a big difference to your car mate! looks really nice, i think white looks good,
green stuff pads dont give off as much dust. green stuff isnt that good though but they do last a bit longer.

Get a huge great wacking pressure washer and some auto glym "painted" alloy wheels cleaner that works a treat i had white rims on my first scoob and they where a rite pain to clean day after day so i did the above, and wey all 4 wheels clean and like new in 10 minutes :chat
I love the red and white look! (But I would wouldn\'t I)!
I run with EBC Green (Cr*p) for no dust and have Hawks for more Intersting days.Looking good though Jay. See you at Pod (Jap fest)? :wave
Paul..

Quote from: t2rewenki light weight
What\'s makes them "light weight"? The design i.e. think spokes, or the material they\'re made of - at a guess I\'d say they\'re steel?
Cheers
Jon
wow, lots of posts while ive not been on.
antnicuk. you should get some wheels. i dont know if there are any for sale in your buget though.. :rollin
turbo11nutta. thanks.
mccarthy. ill give that a go. thanks
paul-t11. swapping might be the way to do it but i think if you get used to stopping well with the hawks then swap back to somthing less good it might catch me out when i need them. yes im going to the pod.
warthog. black sports bra and big nickers. :rollin
donato+samfc3s, thanks
tony blair,STEEL, :reallymad are you mad :xconfused . the wheel probably weighs less than the tire, hence the name. ill see if i can get some info on them for ya :)
had a quick look and all i can find is i dont think they make them any more :eek: every enkei site i looked at didnt show them. there isnt much diference in weight between the stock 16inch 205\'s and these 17inch with 255\'s. nice :D
These may be better......
Different Colours :)
Nice one m8, Jay will love to see those options!
And after as I just convinced him today to keep em white as he thought of changing the colour! :spank
thanks trex for the better photo\'s and scramp, thats magic :cool even with all those colours i still recon white looks best. :yes
just noticed the time of your posts, havent you got beds to go to. lol
Looks like you p1ssed your bed again m8 as you are posting at 9am on a \'SUNDAY\' morning! Now thats not right! :rolleyes:
Anyway, I forgot to include this pic, this is the only one that came out with the true colour with the proper lighting.
i thought it was more like this :0
Why is it that I look at the paint job and think of Grinder?

Tut tut, wheres the neons?!? :D
mmm some good ideas there. :D :D
i was just going to go with the starsky and hutch stripe :D
i like the faded colour effect purple to be honest
looking through old e-mails and this was a link i sent to a mate to see my car. still looks good. wonder where it is now.
Holy thread resurrections, batman.
Hope your well Jason, Rotorstock 7 ?
blimey, was it really 6 years ago that you bought those wheels from Carl, i remember it like it was last week. You got stuck on the M4 when they closed it due to an accident!. Time flies!
Doesn\'t Driftmotion own it? He deffo did cause he took me out in it. Not sure if he still has it or not though.
i remember driftmotion having it, unfortunately he couldnt take me out in it!!
this was a year and a half ago mind
Red and white - looks great ;P
White wheels on a red car, dont work at all crazy idea:Laugh was it really 5-6 years ago?
see you at Rotorstock ??
Paul
yeah ill be going rotorpop 7. i havent missed one yet :Thumbs-up. could do with a car pass to stay in our usual place xx :Party.
what did you think of it tiddles? it was well sorted by the time i sold it.
antnicuk you got a good memery. i did get stuck in a jam. front row seat for the helicopter rescue.
Top banana mate. Was a while ago now but it was as you left it. He was taking care of it. Last I saw it was being tucked away in a garage to keep warm. He had a AE86 for his daily so the FC was just a play thing really.
Maybe I should give him a bell and see if he\'s gonna pop to RS this year.
yeah good idea :driving
