Re: More pictures needed
Ken,
Interior is wicked, you must be really pleased with the outcome after all the hard work..and £££££
PS; Did you find any pics with the different wheels? also any update on the US company and the Fuch's??

Re: More pictures needed
Hmmmmmmm....that's a lot of money, but I think I would like a set if they are deep dished,
I have had these on for 9 years changed from teledials....

Now recently put these on, like your old ones Ken....


Just not 100% happy with the look, handling and driving..120% better..

Re: More pictures needed
I assume the first ones are 18"?
my car is late offset I'm guessing yours is early so you could get a set of Fuchs at a much better price.....than me
they would like look great on your car

Re: More pictures needed
Ken - As Andy hasn't replied I will!
Yes the first ones are 18", but no the others are late offset (52mm ish), so if your car is after '86 they are the same as Andy's.
