Had my wheels done satin black, really cant recommend the place well enough, did them in a day for me, dropped them off at 10am, then picked them up at 3pm, off to robmarriotts work and he fitted the tyres and bolted them onto the car by 5pm, look so much better than blue wheels, and silver for that matter.
went to mates house to help do some bits to his nova, and took some piccies,
excuse the shit piccies.
mine:


jims nova with his new white wheels, looks absolutly fantastic in real life:



ecuse how dark the pics are, its really hard to try and take pics of a black car in the dark lol

yeah with 10mm spacers having said that he has the earlyer reyland setup which needed brackets to hold the calipers on... the later ones were direct bolt on

dunno they dont give much room for caliper clearance on the spokes, they catch his astra gte calipers, hes swapping them for v6 brakes where there is tiny amounts of clearance, if go for some 16" mo's if you want clearance, thats the best bet, they have loadsa clearance!
they did the 2 which were blue for £20 each and the 2 which were untouched for £30 each, not to bad if you ask me! so with the original blue ones etc i spent £160 getting them done lol!

my 15" pro race are fine with my brakes....
I'm after a set of road wheels/wet weather wheels. I have 16" RaceLine RL7's just now, but they need a bit machined out of the middle.
Pics of the white speedlines got me thinking they'd look nice. Anyone know of any for sale?

when i had the reyland setup there was about the width of a cigerette paper clearance with 16" mille migla t12's... very tight!
i've seen 15" comp mo's over the reyland setup with no clearance issues
anyways back to marks wheels...
