|
|
After destroying both front and rear right rims at Ince last month I have finally got around to getting myself some wider steel rims
This is what a hidden rock did to my front rim:
So I have replaced the 8" wide alloys with 10" wide steels. It's made them look much bigger I think (10" closest and 8" at the back):
They look pretty good on as well I think although I wish they were white
They do stick out a little bit though!
Looking forward to testing them out this weekend _________________ Frank |

They are 33x12.5 R15
They went onto the 8" rims ok but always looked a bit wimpy. I have the same size ATs on 10" wellers that always looked better.
I'm probably gonna get rid of the wellers now and get another set of black modulars so they are all the same rim _________________ Frank |

They look well on those rims. Often wish I'd gone for 15's, they just have a better shape to them. _________________
