Wheely good :))

Any chance of a pic of the back and rear quarter?

Looks super mossy, I personally think those wheels suit an illiad car more than any other - despite the black ones being faster, the look of an illiad car modded like yours is hard to beat

very very sweet

Right where to start ........ again thanks for all the kind comments everybody :approve:

Im glad everyone likes the wheels because believe it or not i nearly put them up for sale :s

I was really wrestling with the whole look of the wheels and questioning the expense of purely show wheels and tyres.


Right back to the spoiler :s ... i have fitted the wheels with standard spoiler, prima spolier, trophy spoiler and plumped for the trophy as it does compliment the look of the wheels. The spoiler is so grown on me and rear of the car is so aggressive!!!

 

[GTTurbo]

you kept that rather quiet mr mossy.. they look mental on the illiad ph2. lets get a v6 calender going...

LOL Yeah and thanks mate

Calendar sounds like a good idea mate ::

 

[GTTurbo]

like the single wiper too!

Believe it or not, this was my first mod, nice and discreet :approve:

 

[Gregg]

That looks cracking

Out of interest, where did you get the wheel bolts from?
Mine are a bit rusty so might replace them with some fancy ones!

Looks great Mossy, I like the Wheels and the Spoiler! My Personal spoiler preference (aftermarket) is the Prima one, but the whole package looks ace!! :approve:

 

[TRW1]

class!

Again thanks everyone :approve:

It is a stud conversion, i have changed the blue nuts to silver ones know though. The reason for the stud conversion is simplicity, when you think that the wheels are coming on and off as are the front wheel spacers, plus i am also running 5mm rear spacers on the standard wheels, so it's just so much easier.

They really finish it off i think :approve: have you got a link?

I had a stud conversion on my 172, mainly as it was far easier to change wheels when you don't have to try and line them up!

Looks great, think the wheels and the spoiler look cracking!
I really liked the blue wheel nuts aswell

 

[Jamesv6]

I wonder why the Vee doesn't have studs as standard?

Would make life a lot easier. LINK

 

[Matt]

Yes true. Took all wheels off cup at weekend and it was a right pain hetting them back on

Before anyone buys and fits these kit's, can you please do the necessary homework and research before fitting as poor/wrong fitting will be dangerous!!!

Studs are safer too, not that it probably has much bearing on a road car as long as everything is torqued up correctly ...

Good info Mossy :approve:

[Jamesv6]

[glenn]

In my honest opinion.... that looks the nuts Sir!!! :approve: :approve: :approve:

Hope you and the missus are keeping well and I will have to get a look at these wheels in the flesh!
