Cool

Somebody said there should be a post for those who like gold alloys, so what the hell I've had a few beers so off we go
MY00 555 blue Gold 17" Rimstock Monza's, The rally teams gone back to gold and they do look the best on Red, DBM or 555 Blue. Any one else.

I had gold wheels on my Clio Williams as standard and I have gold Sti wheels on my MY99 UK DBM.

My opinion is that the gold wheels suit the DBM, not sure about the other colours. But then if people are happy with their cars/wheels colours then that is good enough for me.

Check with your Subaru dealer for a set of gold wheels and new tyres for around £500 including vat.

Blackscooby -

the guy's called John Longstaff, and his company name is "Wicked Wheels".
£40 per wheel inc.....the only problem is that he is in the North.

Tel 01388 662785
Mobile 07968 735706

I should have done a before & after shot of the wheels....I nearly considered binning them.

DITTO Mr Cookie's sentiments......

Nick,

Where / who refurbished your wheels ?
My Speedline Safari's are showing their age, and desparately need re-painting.

If you would can you say how much they cost for the refurb ?

Thanks

I have DBM MY99 with the 6 spoke gold alloys available from dealers.

I like them but other peoples' opinions are mixed.

I will soon be putting the standard silver ones back on for the winter, as they have good S02s on them, so it will be interesting to see the reactions.

Regards,


Ian

DBM 5 door Sport with ex P1 16" gold 6 spokes. They really stand out and to my mind suit the blue bodywork - especially as I've lowered the suspension with Eibachs.

MY00 DBM (month old) with (surprise surprise) 17" Gold ST2's. Jake, I see you live in New Southgate and have a DBM with Gold ST2's - I live in Bounds Green and have the same!!! Could you please buy something else so we don't look the same? (heh) :-)?

Or maybe I'm supposed to as you were here first right?
