Good boy :D

evilnyntje 30-01-2005 14:43

Did you pollish them yourself?

René 30-01-2005 14:44

wow!! looks really COOL!
are those real whitewall tires or are that rings?
top work!!

vwleusden 30-01-2005 14:44

Wow ! it's a nice combination !

envy 30-01-2005 14:51

The wheels are just colour coded and diamond cut, not polished. I had them laquered as they are going to be my main wheels for a while and we're getting lots of road grit lately.

Tyres are just budget 195/45x14 with wegu rubber inserts.

I just need to get a 4th cap so I can get them diamond cut too.

Stijn 30-01-2005 14:59

Looks good, not sure about the whitewalls though.

Never really thought of this before, but are all four teardrops always the same? You'd have the same problem as with Porsche Turbos, the wheels would look reversed on one side of the car if they were.

Are caps that hard to find Robbo? Should be loads of 'em in the States, right?

envy 30-01-2005 15:08

All 4 wheels are the same, meaning both side point different direction.. oh well, so did the P's.

I had to buy 4 more teardrops to get caps as all 4 of the caps on these were bent. One of the caps on the second set was bent too. I have been quoted around £40 each for them from vagparts.com which is £8 or so cheaper than VAG themselves...

berendd 30-01-2005 15:19

looks really cool!

where do you buy the rubber inserts, white wall rules!
I hope my set of centra's will look as good as yours in a couple of weeks.

Pedaalemmer 30-01-2005 15:32

nice wheels!

now your done with your rimms...clean your back window ;)

envy 30-01-2005 15:37

Tjaap 30-01-2005 19:33

Or have I been fooled?

yeh but teardrops came standard on every other car in the US, and he has enough contacts there to obtain some

antraciet 30-01-2005 20:11

the rimms are looking good with the whitewalls, thumb up :)



looking good on a notch aswel..^^

Stijn 30-01-2005 20:30

I know Robbo in person, I couldn't mistake him for being a yank, certainly not with a big ford ambulance appearing in every picture he makes. He has some good connections in the States, like Jaap said.

Tjaap 30-01-2005 20:42

the ambulance is gone remember :p

envy 30-01-2005 20:53

you know what... that damn ambulance sat next door to me for 7 years and yet I couldnt tell you what make it was, yet I'm pretty sure it wasn't a Ford.

and, yeah, maybe I need to sort some caps out stateside..

Tjaap 30-01-2005 20:57

wasn't it a britisch Leyland? like the predecessor to the Sherpa?

Stijn 30-01-2005 22:24

Bedford? Whatevah, it was 100% British :p

envy 31-01-2005 01:01

It was a fucking eyesore, that's what it was.
