Me? A wheel whore?

I've only had 4 sets

For my Fiesta I've had 4 sets aswell. Guess we're in the same boat.

[EUFez]

i was gonna buy them wheels when they were for sale on fiesta network a couple of weeks ago

Their for sale again soon if you want first dibs. £200 or so lol

[3lward]

Yeah its mine, i know there marmite and understand people might not like them, i thought about doing something different as ive never seen a mk3 on dished 4 spokes, and i couldnt turn down the price at Ford Fair brand new £170

i love starmags! do it!

[Ratspeed]

They the wheels off your mates ZS?

[EUFez]

Yes the wheels are from my mates ZS, look so much better on the Mk3. Get so much attention from them being on!

I say no to Starmags, in my opinon, they won't suit the Mk3 and the style I'm going for with the black roof n' shizz.

A few updates and new pictures...

First of all, I had a go at cleaning my dirty header tank. I used:

-White rice
-White spirits
-Bleach
-Washing liquid
-Hot water

Shook it for five mins. Then left it over night, then in the morning I shook it again for five mins, gave the left over bits a clean with a new toothbrush, obviously poured in new fluid aswell, job done. Chuffed with the result!






New photos of how it sits now...







Oil change, rocker cover gasket, oil filter, plugs, leads, basically a mini service on my car. Just need to change all the brakes and fluid...




Home made oil catch tank, with additional sticker.



...and finally, my other home made sticker, got bored haha!

[Dave G fsi]

Looking good mate

Good work with the header tank too, come up wonders!

[EUFez]

Cheers Dave. Come up very well, chuffed with the result.

[jayrs]

nice touch with the header tank mate, ive cleaned them in the past but havent got the dregs out in the bottom before.

btw, you know your missing the brass insert from that hose take off dont ya...?

[jonyb4]

awesome mate, so its your in a fiesta thats dragging its nuts blocking entrances all over Windsor?

thats more than a "mini" service!

worked wonders ont he header tank, if mine werent recently renewed a few years ago id have wanted to do this!

£50 odd quid new now aint they?
thats more than the price of a few chemicals!


love the arse of this, such stance, really complements how wide the fiestas back end is, please dont ruin it

leave it like that!

[EUFez]

Jay - Thanks mate, come up wonders, really happy with it. Oh dear, didn't notice this until said, I'll sort it out, cheers fella.

Jony - Cheers! Only the heat sheid hits the floor ahaha! It's awesome! Get loads of attention. I'm thinking of keeping these wheels now, and get them refurbed. These are the closest I'll get to BBS and that's all I've wanted. I have to make it higher during the week because of about five speedbumps on the way to go. But on weekends it's as low as your Grandma's blood cell count!

Oh yeah and I've tinted some headlights. Let's see if I can pull it off?!

Leave the cage or get rid???

James

[trecoll]

New tyre much?




I can't say im a great fan of those alloys though

[EUFez]

Yeah, need the tracking done.

I can't think of any alloys that would suit this to be honest, hense why I'm keeping them lol

[MK2 Jamie]

You need something wish some dish. Those are too flat faced.

[EUFez]

I agree Jamie. But, choosing wheels hurts my head. Hense why I'm sticking with these. I can't decide.

[dontpannic]

Looks good James, however I'd be inclined to lose the reverse rake, lower the front more or raise the back to bring it level

[- Danny Boy -]

Jesus that is proper slammed on the rear lol!

[EUFez]

Nick - Thanks mate, don't worry, it will be sorted. Just wanted to test over the weekend how it would run on the lowest setting. It was immense!

Danny - It was sooo much lower on the 13's, dangerously low! Ahaha

Again guys... Wheel choice is an issue. We've already mentioned Starmags, but in my opinon, they'll only suit a Mk1 or 2 Fezta. Hmmmmm

[Ratspeed]

Looking good! i reckon the wheels you have will look good silver instead of black.

or starmags

oh god dont start him off again lol

[EUFez]

LOLOLOL

[EUFez]

Right,

Your final thoughts on these???:

Image, 13x7 front, and 13x7.5 on the rears.



What d'you think?

James

[jonyb4]

yup you've done it now jamie, hes off again

[Michael!]

never thought about pepperpots ?
a nice refurb ccould get them looking minty fresh, and they might look good?
and they've got dishhh

[EUFez]

I just don't know what to have that's all?! Why is it so hard for me? llama

Hmmm Pepperpots are nice, but I want something different. Something shiney! Pfttt so confused. Starmags are my only option, but they totally won't suit a Mk3 in my opinon.

[bakewell001]

If you are going for "oem+" don't you really need something from the ford range?

The original rs alloys you had would have done fine.

My suggestion would be something like my old diamond polished (with anthracite inserts) rs7 spokes...

[Ratspeed]

them four spokes will not suit a mk3 at all. Starmags will.

[Curtis]

i beg to differ:



sick. as. hell

[MK2 Jamie]

7J pepperpots FTW

[Ratspeed]

i beg to differ:



sick. as. hell

Looks alright, but if you read i was refering to the four spokes that james posted up, not the RS four spokes

[Michael!]

My idea wins


Settle for pepperpots

[Ratspeed]

My idea wins


Settle for pepperpots

polished pepperpots

What a photo, I remember that day

[Smo]

The polished Pepperpots could work, but I really like the wheels you have already

[Michael!]

What about polished A3 pepperpots ?

plus, they are different james, you dont see many mk3s cruising around with them and they look imense with stretchhhhhhhhhhhh!
