did you make the banded steelies? WTFFFFFF!!!!
mate your talents know no bounds! if you made them, you could make a killing if you sold them to people!
ed38 would love them

i think they suit the caddy perfectly, could you not get some 17" steelies then band them?

great work mate

bit hard to find tbh , as thats what i was after , but finding 7/7.5j 17inch steelies in u.k is a nightmare , so chopped some 16inch and upped the sidewalls to 50 instead of 40 , fills a holes and saves spacers an extra bolts

sweet mate, your knowledge knows no bounds mate!

i know what you mean, they are hard, i'd take a look on ebay for breaking mercedes, they have 17's and 18's

fair play to you, keep it coming

Awesome project .

I really enjoy reading your updates.

merc with 17inch steelies i know they have plenty of space savers , but there nor 7/7.5 rims , most ive sen are 15/16inch steelires , i know some scooby evo have a 5x100 17inch space savers which are ok to chop the centres out to fit mine , , i dropped on a steelies 8j free lander rim ,17inch but there so hard to find ,

 

[suj]

Really? There was a guy with a mk5 golf with 17 or 18" steels, not banded neither, I will try and find out more for ya mate

 

[brightsideteeem]

dont new golf's have 18" space savers? Would they not be easier to get hold of so you could work your magic on them?

 

[EmDee]

The steels are awesome mate!

If you're ashamed to bring this baby to E38 (cant blame you it is a bit cliquey/scene) you'd better come to the RR gathering! Put it in your diary and I'll see you there
