Default Finally New Wheels

Been looking at these for a while, finally got a set. First choice would of been Gunmetal but i could only find Gunmetal/Polished lip so i took a gamble and bought them and to my Shock/Surprise when i opened them they were all Gunmetal Wohooo i cant find them anywhere though. Could i have a one off set

Enough Gassing heres some Pics:-














Hope you Like Melon.

Bloody lovely rims! Replica TE-37's do look the business.

Near enough perfect.

Wish I could afford a set for myself!

what size are those ones ?????? I'm guessing 18's as i think from one of the picutres i can read the tyre size - but not 100% clearly.

and Stiver3 - Take a peak in the Trader announcements section about rims from Scoobyclinic 17" £325 a set. 18" £400.

No extra holes in those ones as they are a limited run for the scooby and they dont need a spiggot ring either.

Love these wheels, i just cant decide on these or the Redlines

Grr thats typical that is just my luck, im still happy with the rims though but argh i could of had them without the rest of the holes for not a great deal more. Yes mate they are 18's been for a blast this evening and just changing to a bigger alloy has made it feel even more stable on the road im quite impressed.

ive ordered the 17's but not sure whether to go for the 18's or not got to let them know before monday 11am.
The thing is ive read soo much about the 17's vs the 18's and Scoobyclinic even advised the 17's but .... i like the way the 18's sit... why cant things be simple.

Im glad you like your wheels mate, after seeing them on the car i settled on the SVTI's over the Redlines even though the Redlines are better for the huge break conversion kits - but i might never go down that route anyway.


Also what nuts you got on there ??

I love them and tried a set of Gunmetal/polished lip on my STI, but unfortunately they won't clear the Brembos without resorting to daft spacers.

There's a Type 25 (Sammy H's) on here with proper Volk's on in the same colour (polished lip) and it looks superb!! Sorry for nicking the pic Sammy!!

I think the wheels were on his earlier Blob Eye too. I WANT EM!!!
