mmmm lots goin on here then, like the red grill best!

 

[danmay]

red grille black arches in my humble opinion buddy!

Adam,

Problem with merc wheels is that they are 9J wide at the rear so will really stick out of the arches.

 

[UncleFester]

Could you not just have the inner hub face machined down by 10mm?

 

[jonjay]

I am sure there is a way of course but they are 9J and thats bloody wide...10mm wouldnt be enough.

 

[Ad Lav]

They're not 9J - I have them in my garage with the adaptors already!

They're 7.5 x 16 ET52

 

[Ad Lav]

These are the same wheels on a guys VR6 from Edition 38...

Oo they look amazing

You getting them done in your special colour? Which i seem to have borrowed haha

 

[jonjay]

replicas?

 

[Boo]

Call me a daftiehead but, have you thought about colour coding the arches ?

Diamond cut with Colour coded inserts....BTW they were the same wheels i was looking at for the Bezza...but the ET doesnt work out....

 

[Ad Lav]

Yeah they will - pop over and try them on

They are ET52 so 30mm on the back is ET22 and 20mm on the front is ET32... where's the problem?

Without arches. As Altech said - looks a lot newer. And I think red grill at the front. Looks much nicer.

first butchers at this thread ad looking good have you sprayed that boot lid yet mate?

imo the red grill and black arches look good but if you can afford to have the arches flared out then metal would look alot better! specially when youve stretch some rubber on them merc wheels
