  1. 19 x 10.5 Rears Et 21 19 x 8.5 Fronts Et 40 Recently powder coated in black inc the lips, but were split to do this. Personally would have these wet lacquered over to really gloss them up, more photos available please just ask. These will fit a fair few other Volk Racing bolt patterns if you fancy a spare set of different centres, unfortunately not my sf winnings which was the plan. £800 And to pre empt any "cash" low ball offers, i dont accept bottle tops nor am i vat registered or operating a business, so cash/paypal or bank transfer, it is all the same to me
  2. Great price too Think a buddy of mine was there with a stripped out older M3
  3. Been watching MotoGp ever since my biking days, but apart from the lure of hoping for Cal to be up the sharp end and seeing what Marquez can do in the top flight i personally found this race as dull as any of last years season, perhaps duller as Stoner is gone. One rider having the edge over the rest and the others battling for the other two podium spots. I just read a report on Pistonheads about the opening round, they seemed to glorify it as a good race, all because of Rossi, it was literally no different to last years races! I really hope for some closer battles for first out of the rest of the season
  4. Its not so much that, i dont blame people for trying or asking, if you dont ask you dont get On the same token though and relation to this, what do people really expect to pay for quality items, more so, these?
  5. So i am curious gents. Given the info is a bit brief, i.e, having no clue what brand of tyres they are (could be the cheapest possible), what do you think these are worth I am only interested from the point of me trying to sell some very good condition Volks Sf winnings in 19's (colour not to every ones tastes), perfect 350z fit but needing rear tyres, some of the offers i got i thought were quite frankly laughable.
  6. Those Ce28's come up for sale 2nd hand quite often, but usually in the 18" variety Very nice wheel

    If you like Volk Racing GT-C's, i will have a set of 19's coming up for sale in less than a week, been powdercoated in gloss back inc the lips Image below is just for an idea of style. http://www.modifiedplanet.com/2006-nissan-350z-with-19-volk-racing-gtc-wheels/
  9. V6 CVH, i have a personal dislike of number plates that are supposed to spell something but actually dont
  10. I had Federal Rsr's on my Rx7 for track days, somewhere in between sticky road tyres and 888's, but at £170 for a 265/35 from Camskill i thought they were excellent value for money.
  11. I have always left them on, dont ask me what they are for or do though
  12. +1, i think they look very average and bland, beauty is in the eye of the beholder though
  13. Thanks buddy, you have made my day
  14. It would seem the profile is slightly lower than recommended, looks like 35's & 40's are more commonly used in the widths mentioned. I have a very nice set of the 30 & 35 profile in Yokohama Advan Sports with loads of tread from a good friend. Apart from the speedo reading below, would you forsee any problems? Does anyone know where the speedo drive is taken from, front or rear wheels?

    Give us some clues What sort of style, what sort of money etc
  16. You could build a Rx7 for about 50p these days, they are breaking them left right and centre as their value has just gone and unfortunately having just moved from Rx7's, the community is getting...well shall we say, Impreza like. The Supra is about the only jdm sports car from that era that is holding its value. I said to the Rx7 specialist i use, the only way i would ever get back into one is if it was built from scratch, new everything, ironically he has an absolutely brand new shell he bought from Mazda sat in his workshop for sale, very tempting One day, but not until their is some value in them again.
  17. I am guessing that is down to value. Paisley freight do 19" wheels and tyres for a shade over £40
  18. Just nasty imho
  19. Well its good to see someone recognises style and class (apart from the black on black, lol )
  20. There are always solutions Sell your black ones and buy these, lol, wont have the front lips back for a week so gives you time
  21. Of course he did, lol, he wants to sell you something I have no interest in your money as i wont see any of it, so giving you in my opinion, an honest appraisal from being on both sides of the fence! I would bet i could sit you in a car with chinese or branded, same speakers and same amp and you wouldnt tell the difference.
  22. No longer for sale
  23. Not a massive fan of F1 for the very reasons outlined by everyone else posts. I care not which team wins the constructors title, i want to see the best driver win, not the best team. I dont think any of us will truly know if Webber did have the pace to win, if you take what has been said as gospel that Webber turned the engine down expecting not to be challenged, then Vettels actions were an absolute disgrace. There is a very simple answer to this, no car to pit intercom, rely on the old fashioned pit board, the only info a racing driver should need is, position, lap and time splits. Or at the very least, a button to press to say you will be in for tyres next lap or vice versa from the pits to car. I also dont like the fact there is so much run off in F1, not to say it should be dangerous, but they can often make quite big mistakes with little punishment to their lap times. F1 is far to controlled and regimented imho. I wont turn this into a bike vs car discussion and although the MotoGp has been relatively boring the last few seasons with regard to on track battles, we do generally see the best rider win. Roll on some changes to let us see the best car and driver win.
  24. Cant help with the injectors but wanted to say, good on you for experimenting, hope it works out for you. The Mx5 boys love Eaton chargers
  25. The head unit sends the signal to the amp though. Bad signal = Bad quality. Obviously with your details in your signature you are an audiophile Each to their own and like you, i have spent £1000's on high end audio and countless days rewiring entire systems in previous cars. But for me and most people, chinese units will provide more than good enough sound for the average ear and happily work for years without problem in my experience which is basically what the op is asking.
