dini_the_owl Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 just thought id post up a sneak preview of my new rims with the painted calipers and disks,the guy who fitted the tyres balanced them up and put a couple of weights near the front of the rim and wanted to check the clearance, which was thankfully ok. hope to be on the road soon, just my rear ones need fitting now....oh ! and front bumper needs painting...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dini_the_owl Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 thanks for the comments guys, has taken me a while, especially to get a really good finish on the calipers,wasnt sure about the wheels at first but theyve grown on me a bit. hope to see them off the ramps this weekend and see how the billys hang.

dini_the_owl Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 i very much hope so colin, she needs to see a bit of this summer at least just i keep getting carried away, just had front and rear hubs blasted and painted with new wheel bearings all round, only thing was i broke the abs sensors getting them out and at 90 quid a corner its a bit expensive when you also need new tyres....!

dini_the_owl Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 Thanks for that, managed to get all wheels and brakes on at the weekend, didnt realise at first that the 1st set of billys i had purchased had lowering springs and it was way to low on the backend for me so i swapped for some new billys i got about 3 months ago and have the stock springs which makes it look loads better now, just concentrating on prepping the stillen. will update pics soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
