New wheels look very nice!!! What are they? Rota Subzeros? Brembos look great aswell, bet you can feel the braking difference BIG TIME!!

Liking your new wheels and brakes, I think the wheels are Mille Miglias HT7s I may be wrong though and Im sure Shantybeater had them on his old Ibiza.

thanks, alot of people who i see have said they prefer the new wheels. yeah they are the mille miglias, oh i have noticed a massive improvement of the brakes! nearly through me through the front screen when first hit them! cant believe how shocking my standard brakes were untill i fitted these!

brackets were already on the calipers so didnt remove them off the calipers just made sure they were tight, as for the bolts to the hub i just used a 3/8th rachet then tightened them up with a 3/8th long bar, im a mechanic so i know how tight they should be really even though i know i should still torque them! lol. have you got sum to fit yourself?

Wanka lol i was looking at these they look so nice think the brakes would look better in yellow tbh but thats just me :p


lol, yeah i was on the phone straight away as soon as i saw them and brought them! lol, yeah i think it is stealthy and makes it look more aggresive! not to sure about yellow though?

hey standards and practices mr banksy cant fault someone for doing things by the book

No mate arent fauting you at all because as a mechanic i should know that all bolts need to be torqued really but you can get away with most things on a car just tightening them up unlike on a plane, lol
