FAMILY MAN Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Sorry for hassling Carl but I would be looking 18/8.5 et20 for the front to clear the uk brakes and 18/9.5 et 35 for the rear if I was just leaving the arches stock and not rolling them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlT67 Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 I guess so, not sure about the rears but by what others have said that looks to be the case. I don't know if the fronts will need any work yet as I haven't fitted them with tyres yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markylee Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Heres a picture of mine under stock arches et35 What are these like to keep clean, I had polished wheels before and they were a pain in the ass, that's why I prefer black chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi matey they are not to bad soap and water and then keep buffing with a dry cloth until dry. The good thing about them is they dont really show the dirt until you go to clean them. Then your like wow thats how bright they are supposed to look. Ive had them a year now and not sure but i might go for a different set of wheels on coz i fancy a different style..

CarlT67 Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Thanks chaps, the specs are as I listed in the thread but the fronts rub a little on extreme suspension travel, and the rears just fit with my arches rolled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clay Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Are you going to paint it that lovely geeen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlT67 Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Full re-spray then? Are you going to paint it that lovely geeen. Yes Im going to be respraying it, the current paint finish aint great plus Im not much of a fan of silver. As the wings and front bumper need doing might as well get the rest of it done. Not sure on a colour yet I'm split between white, black (again) or RSP to be different. I need to see one in the flesh first though I think.
