230 on 18's.

[DFB]

Eh up chucks.

Took a quick couple of piccy wiccy's when I picked my Vee up the other day. Thanks once more to Stephen Dell for supplying the wheels at an amazing steal of a price.

In between a Ferrari and an MG V8 (like you couldn't tell)

A little closer

Closer still

Generic ass shot

Front wheel (sorry for the blur)

Rear wheel (not blurry)

Cobra anyone?

One more for luck

Beautiful mate! Looks really well there!

Looking forward to seeing shiny 18s on the MK 1. :approve:

One of my mates is hinting at buying my old 17's off me. Perfect condition with excellent rubber, but he has asked me what the PCD is. Anyone know?

Google tells me it's 5 x 108's which seems correct.

 

[Jamesv6]

yup

Great pics mate. vee certainly doesnt look out of place in the line up. MgBgt v8 looks lovely :approve:

 

[farmersclio]

looks bob on what size tyres/spacers did you go for?

 

[blakey]

Looks great, 18s always look bigger on mk1s

Looks spot on..! If I ever get a 230, its going straight onto OEM 18's.. The only other 230 i've seen on 18's is CharlieB's.. they were put on by previous owner James 'J4WYB' one of my fav. mk1's

Nice work DFB!!

 

[Parkypig]

looks superb that,..

I'm on 18s too on my 230. [cmilie=iconcheers.gif]
Gonna try some michelin pilot cups all around once the good weather comes.

All the best, Steve.

 

[Duncan]

so classy. :approve:

 

[DFB]

Cleaned my bitch up good this morning and took her out.

I'm in such turmoil at the moment as I really, really fancy a MkII but I just love this little fat girl so much.

Took the pics with my BlackBerry, so excuse the lower resolution.

Very nice Dan..!

FYI, my 172 came from up your way... :race:

 

[GTTurbo]

18's suit the phase 1 so well :approve:

 

[davilamb]

nice!!

 

[VII Car Care]

wow, such horniness right there & sooo shiny! :approve:

 

[Jamesv6]

18's on a MK1 is probably the only mod I would do. Looks just right. :approve:

 

[Ed220V6]

Remarkable difference there mate, great mod!
