by **Superal** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 12:43 pm

Spotted the change when I went past your house yesterday

Had a better look when I got stuck in traffic right next to it today :lol:

by **Ram** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 2:36 pm

by **ianFRST** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 2:42 pm

white wheels on a red car

black wheels on a black car only

ps you seem to have alot of stalkers watching your every move :bonkers:

by **chris-fiesta** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 2:57 pm

changes the whole look of the car...really like them

by **mike_wall15** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 3:12 pm

Don't look too bad... I think the blue strips let the car down

Green ones I like, or nothing at all

Get those brakes cleaned!! :lol:

ianFRST :ps you seem to have alot of stalkers watching your every move

I was thinking the same Enemy of the State! :aaah:

knuckles - told you plenty of people would like them

by **AndyRS1800** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 4:10 pm

Looking good there, i also am not a fan of black wheels, it just looks like ur riding on steel's, but its not my car, if we all liked the same thing all our cars would be the same,

Keep up the good work

by **knuckles** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 6:13 pm

Cheers for all your replies.

I like them alot.

im debating whether to remove the side blue strips and just keep the bumper ones. I can see the blue now clashes with the black wheels.

Im thinking about just dropping the rear a tad - maybe 25mm drop.

The stalker situation is a bit worrying - :lol:

mike_wall15 :Get those brakes cleaned!!

Cossie ones are on there way soon

by **TIL13R** on Tue Oct 10, 2006 7:55 pm

Not a fan of the new wheels IMO but each to there own, but love the condition of the car!

Keep it up!

Stalking can't be helped I use his road twice a day during the week :lol:

by **Xr_Dub** on Wed Oct 11, 2006 12:27 am

I think if the car was lower then it would look much better
i like them... think it would look better with a lower drop

by **chris-fiesta** on Wed Oct 11, 2006 2:11 pm

if cossie 4x4 rims are on the way id invest in coilovers

by **knuckles** on Wed Oct 11, 2006 5:41 pm

chris-fiesta :if cossie 4x4 rims are on the way id invest in coilovers

What on earth for? :-?

Eddited to add, love the wheels

by **bikerlegend** on Thu Oct 12, 2006 12:43 pm

nicw wheels mate, agree with a=what everyone else is saying with regards to lowering it a bit, uyou say you had to space the rear wheels 5mm but you only have 195 wide tyres? i have 205.45.16 on the back of my fiesta and no spacers and there fine, weird

by **thorny** on Thu Oct 12, 2006 6:46 pm

ye wheels look good, bet your really happy with them, as almost everyone else has said, would look great a tad lower!

by **M4tty** on Thu Oct 12, 2006 8:42 pm

ianFRST :black wheels on a black car only

thought your white FRST had black mondeos on :bonkers:

by **knuckles** on Sun Oct 15, 2006 4:03 pm

Bit of a colour coded update.

New wheels have made me think about losing the blue strips.

Max has been waiting for me to do this for ages so here you go.

Before you ask they pics are not photoshopped.

Hows it look now ? :wink:

I made some of my own window stickers - so if anybody wants some drop me a Pm.

by **heeman10** on Sun Oct 15, 2006 5:14 pm

The black trim strips have totally changed it for the better

The black wheels looks far more at home now, quite similar to "ballin's" car before he broke it.

by **hb69** on Sun Oct 15, 2006 5:22 pm

the black wheels suit the car even more now

by **Max M4X WW** on Sun Oct 15, 2006 7:35 pm

I was so right! New plates and black handles as i have just said!

by **ianFRST** on Sun Oct 15, 2006 7:38 pm

4x4 cosworth brakes fitted at last....

Painted up nicely - Well impressed with them

Finally some real stopping power !

by **Smo** on Sat Oct 21, 2006 12:27 am

Grr, take some proper pics! That doesn't show them relative to the rest of the car :bonkers:

by **adz** on Sat Oct 21, 2006 12:32 am

they look tidy, whats the pedal feel like?

ive heard with standard brake servo it doenst feel too good?

its the only thing thats stopped me fitting mine

by **Max M4X WW** on Sat Oct 21, 2006 10:30 am

adz :ive heard with standard brake servo it doenst feel too good?

Mines fine, it may be worse - but with the goodridge hoses its never been a problem.

by **xr2imetalhead** on Sat Oct 21, 2006 6:21 pm

stunning mate get her lowerd a tad and itll be perfect top modding love the black stripes are they painted ?

by **chris-fiesta** on Sat Oct 21, 2006 7:20 pm

adz :they look tidy, whats the pedal feel like?

ive heard with standard brake servo it doenst feel too good?

its the only thing thats stopped me fitting mine

my pedal felt abit soft untill i changed the vacuum going from the servo to the inlet...

looking good clark, but like simon said take a pic of the whole car with them on

by **mike_wall15** on Sat Oct 21, 2006 8:25 pm

Much better!
Now go clean those wheels!

by **knuckles** on Sun Oct 22, 2006 1:22 pm

Thats the best i could do today as it was pouring down at work.

Pedal feels fine even with the standard hoses. May wack on a set of braided hoses.... But the stopping power is excellent.

The black strips was only black insulation tape, didnt last long in the wet .... :lol:

Im a bit worried pulling off the bumper inserts as the last time i did it the paint came off with it. :cry:

Once i have done that its a trip to fords to get the black bumper inserts. Im still wondering whether to leave the side ones off .....

mike_wall15 :Much better!
Now go clean those wheels!

lol @ Mike - :lol:

They are not dirty... the inner alloy wheel has been finshed with matt paint. Easier to keep clean and means i aint got to polish the inner wheels all the time like max

by **TomRS1800** on Sun Oct 22, 2006 1:49 pm

Nice stoppers

by **mike_wall15** on Sun Oct 22, 2006 3:12 pm

knuckles :lol @ Mike - They are not dirty... the inner alloy wheel has been finshed with matt paint. Easier to keep clean and means i aint got to polish the inner wheels all the time like max

The inside of mine have been painted black, and I find a meguiars wheel brush reaches through the spokes nicely.
They aren't bad, but do look a little brownie-dirty like! :lol:

by **heeman10** on Sun Oct 22, 2006 4:22 pm

I have a black Ford bumper strip, so if you want you can go order one from them, then knock £5 off that price and have mine from me for that

Glad you've got some proper brakes now!
