14 inch steelies with chrome spinner hubcaps

 

And everyone was taking the piss out of that poor kid for wanting 18s on his Lupo

 

32" rims and 36" wide






and split rims.......sort of

Ah, but the difference is, i've done the arch mods to be able fit big rims



Motorhead : thats jus bein plain daft

 

and fitting a 1.8 carb engine isnt

 

get a set of 18'' porsche rims

 

Its a 1.6 carb Dumbass

and you admit it.....

 

It should be a 1.8, but i took that of this chassis and put it in the silver one, then killed it

 

you need to take the 1.6 out as it may be too fast for you and fit an old 1040 Polo engine........with a missfire

 

did you see the Corrado in PVW (think it was pvw) on Audi rims like the ones in your pic, looked good

 

Um, not sure if i've seen that or not.

You do get those rims in 17/18/18" replica sizes, so it wouldnt be unreasonable to have that look on the car

Wouldnt want to buy 19" tyres though

 

Dammit,Andy,I've warned you about sneaking into my workshop and taking pics.
First it was the ultra secret 4x4 conversion....



Now your taking my idea for new rims.
Is nothing sacred?!!!!

 

Jus fitted a couple of the powertechs up to see how they looked

Wheels do maketh the car

 

i feel another thread coming on

how can you top such threads as"the bronze one at breakfast",'the bronze one at lunchtime",the bronze one at teatime" and all the half hourly pics in between.

 

Now there is an idea

 

mate of mine has them on his passat 1.8t and they are a bit bling to be honest.

 

The A8 Reps are only 5*100 so you'd need new hubs, thats if you were serious of course...

 

That makes it even easier, fit the disc conversion at rear, 5 stud discs - sorted.

Front, get 3 of the bolt holes welded up, get 4 re-drilled amd tapped for 5x100 - sorted.
