  1. Okay got little update for the wheels.

     

    Thought about allot, ti's are not going to work to many replica's sadly.

     

    I really like the look of the 18'' Gt wheels in this dark/black grey, in the shade they look black and with the cup kit and everything it looks so very racy and because its so different i want to try this look a little further.

     

    So i ''exidently'' came across a set of 19'' Oz Ultraleggera's.

    The wheels where good shape straight and almost free from damage, but used good, the original Hyper silver coating is starting to fade.

     

    Yesterday i removed the tires and cleaned the wheels with aggressive cleaner.

    I brought the wheels to the powder coater and i spoked about getting a high glossy black coating.

     

    I know the black on black theme is no longer hot ore new ore hip but i don't care about that.  :P

    Today the painter makes me 2 samples : one glossy black and one chrome silver with metallic flake clear coat.

     

    They going to be painted thursday and can pick them up saturday, you guys will see what its going to be  :banana:

  2. Siena's are more suiting the 916 true, but i've seen them over and over and this is something refreshing.

    What i'm thinking now : 19'' 10 spoke TI wheels in this Gun metal! :happy0045:

     

    Going to be nice project to fit... the 19'' are ET41 need 15mm to adapt the 5x110 to 5x98.

    To be continued.


  3. Wow thanks for the big compliments guys!

    On the Dutch forum they are not that enthousiast about the "black on black" combo.

    Whil check meassurements tommorow!

    Tires are 225 40 18 wich is common size for 18"

    Didn't need spacers at the front but used 12mm at the rear.


  4. Siena's are sold so it is time for a other new project of winterwheels!

     

    I found this Gt's 18'' on the net in a very special Dark metal color.

    They are fresly coated last year and looking smashing!

    One wheel is little dammaged on the lip sadly.

     

    when i was with the seller my eye wash atracted to a wheel standing back in the shop.

    I asked him about it and it whas a fifth brand new Gt wheel in the same color he had for spare :happy0045:  

     

    They are fitted under the car and look very racey, will come with some decent pics asap.
