New Rims
 

After contemplating the concave look for awhile now i decided against it, with the b-roads not being very friendly to the spin i made a decision to go for more of a rally inspired look and was lucky enough that a set of Revolutions appeared for sale last week :luxhello: i got in contact with the seller immediately and made him an offer to which he accepted, picked them up on Sunday and fitted them as soon as i got home, then filled in the lettering on the tyres this evening:) very happy with them, opinions welcome:thumb:

Very nice :thumb:

I've got these on my 555. Wish i had not seen this though as i am thinking about changing my wheels on my white blob and this got me thinking :lol1:

:thumb:

my apologies :( it's a hard decision at the best of times to decide on new wheels :)

No problem :thumb: are they 8" wide?

Nic the car looks sweet!!!

Very nice Nic! :thumb:

What size and offset are these?

Very nice mate, looks spot on. Got to love a White newage ;) :thumb:

Look good mate :thumb:

looks great mate.

Nice wheels and car dude,:thumb:

TBH I do prefer those rims on a classic, dunno why, still looks ok thou ;)

Like that mate:cool:

Very nice.

They are 18x8 not 100% sure on the offset but i think it's 45, i'll check next chance i get:thumb:

Thanks for the comments:)

@Guv they do look super good on classic's i agree:thumb: i did however catch a reflection in a garage forecourt window as i drove passed and i have to say i was very glad i bought them:) well worth the 6hr round trip imo.

Nic where did you get them? How much ( pm me if you like ) and have you seen the Millenium 2's ?

that looks minted mate

Thanks Tom.

Playing on the idea to get some of these, one of my fav wheels :D

Cracking choice. Have the same in anthracite on my type R.

I am considering getting these for my Spec C as well, but i believe they are quite heavy aren't they. I think they are 11-12kg? How does it drive with these wheels? Does it blunt performance in anyway?:wonder:

The new Millenium 2's are ment to be a good bit lighter ;)

When i fitted them, i didn't notice much of a difference in weight to the 17's that were coming off tbh,
the ride feels smooth and still makes me smile on the b-roads :)

@Phil555 have you some pix of the anthracite's on your TypeR i can view?

Very nice, revolutions really do suit the scoob:thumb:

like it :)

First & second pic are how the car is now as I have fitted the OE decals. Third is an old pic but they give you an idea.

Wicked! Gives it a proper rally look, good choice. :thumb:

Wondered on these a few times for my MY03.

:thumb: thanks guy's.

Anthracite look really smart on the milleniums Phil :cool:

decisions decisions :wonder: maybe next year mine might get a refresh :)

Does anyone have an interest in doing a photoshop? I'd like to see how they would look in white and also in black,
some help would be much appreciated.

Nick.

both cars look loverly with those wheels on

I was going to paint them black straight away as my last set of wheels (P1 WRC) wheels were black but decided the anthracite was OK. If i kerb one i'll do them black.

Fitted the AST'S at the weekend and have to say i'm very pleased with them, much more comfort than the oem setup, £225 well spent I think.

Sitting a little lower now.
