do you think so i havent fort about getting spacers.. what size do u think i should get mite try it this weekend. im trying to get her looking nice for modified nationals lol..

That looks quality chunkeboi!

As said powder coating is the way forward if you can justify spending that bit extra,will last a lot longer and you won't have to worry bout stonechips etc.

I think £50 seems wayyyy too much,especially seeing as your rims ain't even that badly damaged,most bodyshops charge roughly £25 per wheel so £50 seems extortionate!I'd definatly look at other bodyshops/alloy specialists before forking out the money,and worst comes to the worst,get a mate or someone off here to do it for ya on the cheap .I've refurbed 4 sets of rims now just using halfrauds spray cans and had fairly decent results as I'm too skint to fork out for a proper refurb.

20mm spacers on the back will fit and level up that rear track. Think you'll find it will make a massive difference to looks and handling.
Infact you might want to think about 15mm spacers if u really want to slam it
Awesome car though mate - i want it

I got quoted £40 a wheel today for same colour (white) then £45 if wanted a different colour. Also the option of having them done in that carbon fibre stuff but didnt ask how much it was. Probably alot more money.

im trying to get her looking nice for modified nationals lol..

Hurray another Ibiza to spot! Hope it's not a wash out like last year!

Lazer/plasma cutting everyone is right there you would never get a car wheel onto a plasma cutter well at least i know fact you wont get anything thicker than 100mm under the torch unless this guy in the garage has a super doper plasma cutter which i very much doubt as mine at work cost £100,000 so im guessing not every garage has that sort of wonga to throw at a machine that would only be worked every blue moon. anyhow why would you plasma cut it, wheels are cast alloy if you removed a section you would never weld it back safley i think this guys idea of plasma cutter is Oxycetalyne tourch lol. I would defo recomend the sand blast and powder coat choice everything i fabricat goes to be powder coated because of its long lasting wheather durable qaulity plus there is plenty of choice of colours and finnishes.



Those wheels ^^^^^^^ have given me an idea do you think those wheels powder coated black with crome hub nuts would look good on a mk4 ibiza paint colour silver? hmmmmmmmmm im thinking this would look good
