Title: Re: new shoes but bad boots Post by: Bryan67 on May 07, 2009, 21:40:08 pm Sorry but I like the Fuchs much better. Are you going to put in a narrowed beam now?
Title: Re: new shoes but bad boots Post by: Diederick/DVK on May 07, 2009, 22:00:37 pm are those the rims off ebay?
7" fronts? what size on them now? i think they'd look cool blasted, bit like fab's. definitely stepping away from the more mainstream fuchs look, are you? Title: Re: new shoes but bad boots Post by: Dokke/DFL on May 07, 2009, 22:03:02 pm Sorry Ron, the fuchs were looking better ...
But like you said, another color and tyres would make the different Title: Re: new shoes but bad boots Post by: Rocket Ron on May 07, 2009, 22:59:59 pm got another set of fuchs being sorted
the d spoke rims will be going on the ghia at a later date yep the ones from ebay 6 x 15 all round. I have a CB narrowed beam in now and the rims are just level with the fender I think 145 or 155 on the front and 205 out back Dokke you have pm Title: Re: new shoes but bad boots Post by: Black Sheep on May 07, 2009, 23:17:40 pm I knew wouldn't be able to resist bolting them on for a foto op ::)
