Me new RS GT's!!!

vRS Dovit · 03-05-2008, 13:32

Well, SWMBO finally agreed to getting new wheels for the Furby!! WOOOOOOHOOOOO

The only stipulation was that she picked them!!

Think she's made a good choice lol
Will update when i get better pics and when she's polished lol

I'm looking into getting a green "V" made up to go in front of the "RS" part

bobjim · 03-05-2008, 13:34

woooo hooooo looking sweet,

keep that lip polished!!!!!!!!!!

BoilingPoint · 03-05-2008, 13:35

Best watch the pot-holes in those...

... and the kerbs hehe

Not sure I like them to be honest...

Each to their own though.

Offerman · 03-05-2008, 13:38

Looking wicked Dovit! I see the H&R's are holding up nicely aswell.

I'd give it a few months before you want to spank some 312mms on her.

I found as soon as I got a nice set of alloys my attention kept getting drawn to the brakes and it was'nt long before I decided a brake upgrade was required. But yeh, fantastic set of wheels dude.

oilburninnut · 03-05-2008, 13:39

get the lips polished and sealed asap

Looking good tho,don't think they would work on any other colour fabia but on a black one they look great

vRS Dovit · 03-05-2008, 13:40

hehehe i've got the meguires metal polish ordered! lol
SWMBO's told me the same thing!
i quote....."you better not damage them or i'll *@!!!#%$&* your skull in!!" lol lol lol

vRS Dovit · 03-05-2008, 13:42

what do you mean by "sealed" mate? Was gonna go for bigger disks, but those new ones i got make the car nose dive!! lol lol

DJM123 · 03-05-2008, 13:53

Me thinks they mean to polish the wheels then seal tem with good quality wax. Like the wheels, suit the car.

vRS Dovit · 03-05-2008, 13:57

ahhh....D'oh! lol
That'll be getting done next week as i'm off work for a fortnight!!! lol lol
Must buy more things for the car lol

DJM123 · 03-05-2008, 14:04

I recently polished and waxed mine and it is definately much less hassle when washing as the dirt just wipes off really easily. Should work well if you start from new.

vRS Dovit · 03-05-2008, 14:12

Top info mate! Thanks again lol

Oh, and i've just joined "FREEDOM" today

MudPuppy · 03-05-2008, 14:17

I quite like those - I think they were a good choice, particularly for a black car, they do suit it.

I washed my car today: it was waxed a few weeks ago and it does make it loads easier to keep clean.

Enjoy!

Kay.

vRS Dovit · 03-05-2008, 14:21

Ta Kay. I normally have the car gleaming but work has been hectic! i'll get her all tarted up n post the better pics next week lol

L-Y-K · 03-05-2008, 14:27

i think they need spacers

but they look good!

vRS Dovit · 03-05-2008, 14:30

Was thinkin about spacers but not sure on the thickness to go for...plus cant decide if i should do the front and the backs or just the back

devonutopia · 03-05-2008, 15:51

Poorboys wheel sealant is goods for the sealing part, once all the rest is done.

vRS Dovit · 04-05-2008, 14:27

will i get that from any autoshop or do i need to order it, Jason?

ChrisRs · 04-05-2008, 18:52

Now you can see more of them, you might want to clean the calipers

vRS Dovit · 04-05-2008, 22:51

lol as said at the start.....it needs a clean! lol will get her washed, cleaned polished (and calipers blinging lol) and waxed next week.
Cheers for the comments guys
