ok, now i'm very good at making the right choice of mods where my car is concerned (IMO) and am always happy with my decisions.... except, this time i have a niggling doubt. now i know its all about personal preference, but.... i would like some opinions on my latest choice please.

so....

THE CAR



and now...

THE NEW WHEELS





so, what do you Scoobypeeps reckon????? please feel free to comment as well as use the poll option.

cheers,

Kevin

ps. either way, the car has to have some new 18s on!

very nice mate

i do like those wheels m8, will defo suit the car and colour. makes the car darker(not in the colour sense), if you know what i mean.

any picks on the car?
Lee

I presume the bottom ones are the new ones???

Job too tell without seeing them on the car but they look very nice, I also like the ones on the car.

Have you tried them on the car yet????

Cheers Lou

Lee/Karl,

the car is up at Scoobyclinic at the moment. if i can get away from work on time tomorrow, i'll take the wheels up and try em on (assuming the car isn't being worked on at the time).

i know what you mean about making the car look darker... and that was the general ideal... wanted a slighlty meaner look! i love the Kahns too, but i've been after a set of 18s for some time now! if i can get some pictures of them on tomorrow, i'll post them here.

cheers,

Kevin

Streebeck

If you've got some bigger pics of your car i'll pshop 'em on if you like...?

K9VYN

is this big enough??? funnily enough.. its this view that i'm uncertain about!



cheers,

Kevin

Streebeck

wicked, i'll see what i can do

Streebeck

How friggin rough is this... (check out the hand painted brakes rofl)


Anyways I think they're very nice, like p1's but more interesting. I say go for it

K9VYN

Streetbeck,

top job!!! thanks for taking the time to do it. you might just be allaying my doubts with that bit of inspirational photoshopery

nice one, thanks again..

Another vote for the new wheels from me They look quite similar to the 10 spoker 17s I had on my old red classic (see pic)

K9VYN

a nice comparison... thanks - lovely looking car by the way!

Kevin

Daft Lad

Kevin, they'll look fookin great on your car, massive from me!

StickyMicky

i say do it

i had them 5 spoke rims on mine but i painted them anthracite to hide them
its a very dated style of wheel IMO

Streebeck

They remind me of an old 3D set of wheels i did



Anyway get them wheels on, as soon as you see the reflections as you drive past shop windows you'll know it makes sense...

furrydice79

hehe,,i love those shiney shop windows and im sure i aint the only one..

K9VYN

thanks to all who have voted and or commented thus far... its looking pretty conclusive!

ps.. sh1tty M1 conspired against me and i ended up reaching Scoobyclinic late - so sadly no pics of the wheels on the car until i get it back in a few weeks.

Dazza01

Im surprised you even asked the question Kev, these look way better mate

Get em on sharpish or GIVE them to me

K9VYN

i love my Kahns Dazza, had 'em longer than i've had the car (well, by a week or so) - fancied a set of 18s for the last year or so and figured the car could do with a slighlty meaner look, hence....

As you know m8, ive had the silver version on mine for a while, I love em. In 18's for the price you Just cant beat it, just hope my supplier get's some more in before the other half Trashes the other 2 and i have to buy a whole new set (Kev Knows what i mean)

K9VYN

yeah, i am pretty much convinced now that i made a good decision with this purchase (was just a moment of weekness on my part) - and they really do look well on your car!

i think my problem was that i am a big fan of fewer and fatter spoked wheels, so this is quite a change for me. once again, good luck with your replacement alloys.

K9VYN

Damn my indecision, sure i'm turning into a woman but i have found an alternative i prefer (for the time being at least )

so these wheels are now for sale! please see THIS thread!

K9VYN

These wheels have been sold!

eclone

Where'd you get that second spoiler above the rear windshield. I like the car. Only thing I'd change is all the meshing to black and some black mudflaps to match the rims.

K9VYN

those rims have been sold now and i'm getting plain old silver ones this week, so i think the red flaps will stay

re the spoiler, its a custom one i had made a few years back now - haven't seen another with anything similar (apart from the new 2006 model Scoobs) - maybe because not too many people like it.... but i love it
