TimGSXR Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Looks good, very shiny, will the salt not eat these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 Looks good, very shiny, will the salt not eat these? the wheels have been sealed with 2 coats of Jetseal 109 plus my car hardly comes out to play now with not needing it to travel to work. So I'm hoping it will be ok as long as I keep the wheels clean after any brief usage during the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkie34 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Look Mike. Slight drop now maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 Look Mike. Slight drop now maybe? dont know. It had only just come of axle stands. SO perhaps still sitting slighty high and on a hill. Already a problem with a couple of speed bumps so dont want to risk it anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srobrien Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Wheels are sexy looking mate, do think a wee drop would do it the power of good, i've gone 30mm and it looks a hell of a lot better and since the greddy lip came off i've had no bother on speed humps.

M13KYF Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 donah, I quite like how the wheel arch gap is equidistant around the wheel. Never say never though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andlid Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 sweet lips Do you have any pre and after photos of them? (before refurb) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 sweet lips Do you have any pre and after photos of them? (before refurb) tbh they were in mint condition apart from one bad wheel kerb and on another two wheels they were a couple of nicks from stones. This was the big kerbing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HEADPHONES Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Absolutely love the lips on those bad boys. They have a kind of hypnotising effect that would add an extra hour onto their cleaning time while you just admire the finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractor Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 That has to be the sweetest beige metro ive ever seen. Come to think of it, its the ONLY cool metro ive ever seen. (apart from the 6R4 of course) I love restrainedly modified 80's 'box-shaped' hatch backs! Oh and your rims look good as well mike!!! Are they a different offset to the rays?

Are they a different offset to the rays? no spacers which I did with the rays. My bro's metro has a few mods already on and a few planned. I actually like the colour in a cool way. He's got the MG Metro interior to go in it which was like a fine black and white herring bone material. Should go well with the colour. His turning circle is awful and only managed 248 miles out of the yoko's but he's said you could chuck into any corner and it just stuck. another pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
