Title: wheels? Post by: jinx on September 08, 2011, 14:08:34 pm I know that this is down to me ultimately but i just cant decide,
when i have the steelies on i fancy the BRMs on and when i have the BRMs on i quite fancy the steels. I think the BRM'S could benefit from some bigger rubber on the back!! anyway here are a few pix, i look forward to your feedback. cheers mal. BRM (http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t251/jinxmp/fq2.jpg) with caps.. (http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t251/jinxmp/roth.jpg) without..

My opinion is take the steel wheels without caps. :) Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Martin Greaves on September 08, 2011, 14:30:08 pm Steel wheels without the caps but i would paint them silver. ;D
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: jamiep_jamiep on September 08, 2011, 14:38:43 pm Another vote for steels... you need a bit more tyre up front in my opinion to fill the arch a little more.... what is it at the moment?
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: jinx on September 08, 2011, 14:40:27 pm 135's up front, what do you suggest?
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: CHR!S/DVK on September 08, 2011, 14:43:23 pm + steels without caps
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Nico86 on September 08, 2011, 14:47:24 pm Steel wheels are sweet (with or without caps it's sweet both ways).
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: johnl on September 08, 2011, 18:16:39 pm I guess I'm Old School as I prefer the steel wheels with stock caps. ;)

I agree. Go 145's, the 135's look a bit lost in there. Title: Re: wheels? Post by: speedwell on September 09, 2011, 00:39:50 am steel wheels with porsche nipple hubcaps
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Bryan67 on September 09, 2011, 01:49:45 am steel wheels with porsche nipple hubcaps This is good. I like the BRM`s too though. Do NOT care for the no hubcap look however. It always reminds me of someone who can`t afford hubcaps or the ratty primer, no decklid, chrome firewall, open stinger crowd. And those front tires look too small to be 135`s so yes on taller tires.Title: Re: wheels? Post by: jinx on September 09, 2011, 08:43:00 am cheers for the comments guys!!
I agree the front tyres also need to fill the arch a bit better, so you guys say 145's? I had been looking for porsche nipple caps but they were quite hard to find and when i did they were going for daft money. Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Zach Gomulka on September 10, 2011, 20:50:37 pm If the fronts are indeed 135's they must be a 70 section, they look rather short. Normal 145/15's will fill the arches very nicely. Is the beam narrowed?
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Wink's1966 on September 11, 2011, 00:09:05 am steel with out caps...if caps nipples only :-) i agree with lil more tire..... maybe a 155 up front (or a cunt hair lower with 145) and a 215/65/B15 M&H dot slick on the back :-)
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Neil Davies on September 11, 2011, 20:55:46 pm I'm going to buck the trend and say BRMs, but with 145s on the front and a decent size tyre on the back. Also, BRMs look better on cars without bumpers IMHO! :)
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: volkskris on September 11, 2011, 21:37:41 pm BRM! but only because they're darker ::)
Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Wink's1966 on September 12, 2011, 05:47:09 am BRMS+The right tire= SEX!!!! ;D
and yea no bumpers :D (http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k101/jwghia69/cca4cbfb.jpg) Title: Re: wheels? Post by: Jon on September 12, 2011, 08:16:33 am I would run it with the steels without hubcaps, but only after fitting a full width front beam and lower the front some more.
