genuine chrome modulars 13 x 7
looking at some 235/50/13 bridgestone eagers(discontinued) for rear and some 215/50/13 eagers for front white wall lettering will look real old skool
can\'t wait..
thou the wife will kill me if she see\'s just how much i\'m spending..

Wide 13" tyres are a struggle to get hold of. The fashion is for larger diameter wheels these days.

kiwi-mick

this is roughly how she will look thou no where near as low

it\'s all good keith driving a series 1 with those exact wheels on some 15 or so years ago i remember how forcefull you had to be, and by god did it stick to the road a porche will have trouble keeping with you on tight windies.
i may be older and while i\'ve not trained seriously for 3 years i\'m a hell of a lot stronger than i used to be

I like it! As Keith says though, you\'ll need arms like Popeye to park it.

3 years ago i could bench press 160 kilo\'s (now might struggle at 120kg\'s i think) and dead lift 310kg\'s so no drama there will keep my forarms in decent shape.. wish the rest of me didn\'t look so bad thou LOL
should never of given up training!

I haven\'t but if it\'s as good as the rust prev paint, I imagine it\'ll do the trick
Aradite is my usual way of repairing them though.
I\'d be very interested Mick if it doesn\'t look like my old tank! thanks!
Just a thought, when did they change the size of the tanks?
was it btw series 1 to series 2?
or
series 2 to series 3?
