What does everyone think?

I'm thinking of ditching the mudflaps but not 100% sure yet. I'm much happier with the look of the car exterior wise, think i'm going to add a tow hook to the rear and a bit of carbon, then get it detailed.

I would like to thank Neil and Matt at Slowboy racing for the various bits and pieces they have done recently, Duncan (Race Dynamix) for his mapping skills, arch-enemy for the arch rolling and Anger on here for supplying me the wheels.

Thanks
Matthew

They look awesome, fill the arches nicely and look very menacing indeed!!:doubleup:

pete96wrx 04-07-2011 04:46 PM

looks great really like them rims

Steve_PPP 04-07-2011 05:45 PM

that looks much better :ok:

Anger 04-07-2011 05:51 PM

I want them back.... Looking spot on Matt

i would keep the flaps as the wheels being wider, they have a habbit of throwing stones up the side ;)

chrisp 04-07-2011 06:05 PM

Think these are my favourite wheels on a newage car now, looks spot on

C. J. 04-07-2011 06:14 PM

Did you get it mapped on the road or rollers ?
Only ask as wondered what the afr's were like

ralliart didz 04-07-2011 08:57 PM

that looks the nuts :10:

see if skullfudge can photoshop the wheels gloss black

can you take some pics from the back

impreza27 04-07-2011 11:18 PM

wheels look great mate i would keep the mud flaps myself mate.:10:

Steve_PPP 04-07-2011 11:38 PM

i'm not sure they'd look as good gloss black. they're stunning wheels, and they get noticed in gold. black would just make them 'blend in' too much imo.

Anger 04-07-2011 11:48 PM

Have to Stay gold to pop out from the rest of the car

Nige 04-07-2011 11:56 PM

Gold they look fantastic. Anger i'm sure you will get another set mate :drive:

AndyWRX 05-07-2011 07:13 AM

Looks spot on mate gives it a much better stance :-)

I had it mapped on the road initially about two months ago when I had the older wheels on, Duncan then tweaked it on the rollers as I fitted an aps cai kit.

Thanks for all the comments guys, originally I was going to buy a set in bronze or black but when these came up for sale I couldnt turn them down.

Heres a few more...
U think I could take the car a bit lower lol

ralliart didz 05-07-2011 06:04 PM

i like them BBS :ok: wot does the car feel like now 2 drive with them on.

bbs_Scooby 05-07-2011 06:21 PM

The car does feel a bit wider if you get what I mean and also a bit heavier cause the wheels are a bit heavier.

DukeBoy 05-07-2011 08:27 PM

Very nice but think they would look better on mine!!!

kirk 05-07-2011 10:19 PM

very nice looks like a different car mate.:doubleup:

scoobyboylevi 22-07-2011 03:02 PM

wheels look wicked much better then the old 1s

and for a nuffer colour if u do them a nuffer colour i would do them white the white ist u can get thay would really stand out from gold and better on a black car

riiidaa 22-07-2011 03:36 PM

keep them as is, looks the mutts

tbtstt 25-07-2011 05:55 PM

As has been said these are definately the wheel of choice for the newage. :10:

I like the look of black cars with black wheels, but with those Rota's you want them to stand out: so I'd say leave them gold!

worzel 25-07-2011 06:02 PM

These look the absolute fookin nuts!

Good job matey :ok:
