Jae got me thinking about new tyres and then onto new wheels...!

So a bit of photoshopping the original Hondas gave me this...



I definately think the dark Tungston colour is good - and possibly in 18's

What do you all think :?:

the ones on the focus look really nice, but im trying to imagine what that cat is thinking.....

if its anything like the ones round here it'll prob be something like

"when he's gone i'll jump on his car and leave my claw marks all over it"


the dark colour goes really well with red, what colour are they as standard on a red one?

Standards are the silver ones...

Cat is sitting there thinking - i whish he'd turn that blummin ultrasonic cat scarer off - its giving me a headache!!! Keeps them away a treat - just switch it on to the motion sensor setting and when they walk near - WHOOSH! Actually thats a byproduct of trying to stop them crapping on the garden

Mods - can someone move this to the wheels section please. :D

Yep - Argos

Takes a couple of the old-style 'calcluator' batteries. Work quite well IME.

[Edit]
Yeah -I was not going to refurb the original - was just playing in Photoshop to get the right sort of colour - tried gold, silver and chrome. But the darker was better. The Rotas look good - bud had my eye on some Buddyclubs on one of the JAE stands..

The Rota Torques that I have are quite nice in gunmetal, I was going to go for them but when I held them up against the car they were a bit dark for the white I felt.

Contact Unit 8 for buddyclub rims through the CTR forum, think we get 10% off.

think them wheels will suite your red teg. can also get away with cleaning the wheels of brake dust every few weeks.
