Pictures Of My New Wheels!

[smoftah]

Hello everyone!

Well after fitting the TTE bumper, the T Sport wheels didn't look right.

So I have finally managed to get a set of Kei Racing alloys - Force 10 in Hyperblack (but is really a shiney gunmetal)

I picked them up from Aldershot last night and got my Pirelli P Zero Nero tyres put on this morning!

I know the car needs lowering but I cant touch it because of insurance :( damn you Directline!

What do you all think?

[mollycorolla]

wow absolutely fab!! really love them! ya must be so happy!! and i must say the colour of your car is the nicest colour ever...!

[cabcurtains]

Looking better than ever

Just get the bl""dy lowering done :ffs: Change Insurance company!!!

Are they 17's on 205/40's ?

[superjim42]

dude your car is sick!

the rims are nice really goes with the blue.

[smoftah]

I cant change insurance companys for 2 years!

I was a named driver under my dads name earned 2 years NCB as a named driver but now moved into my own name and Direct line say that I have to be with them for 2 years so get the 2 NCB, coming out with 4 NCB in the end.

They are 205 / 40 as I still had the tyres from the Kahn alloys I had but compressor's have 205 / 45 so I will upgrading to them when the time comes...and I have some money

Thanks Molly & superjim - I am well happy with how it looks, just needs to be lower

Looking good mate!

How much were your alloys if you don't mind me asking?

A set like that would go quite nice on my CTS!

[smoftah]

alloys cost me £200 to buy, with some crap tyres on but I got rid.

£40 to fit my Pirelli's on

Give them back

[smoftah]

you will never get them back!

Just been out for a drive and I have to say the wheels have dramatically changed the handling of the car!

It feels much better through corners and I can corner harder than I could with the T Sport wheels on, without the fear of rolling over

Gaz - Keep your eye on eBay for them, they are a very popular wheel. I have been looking over the last two weeks and there have always been sets that fit our Corolla's but most are 18" (which isn't a bad thing if you car is lowered!)

Thanks, that's this month's wages gone before i've had them! :(

[ae92 lover]

stop bein a big girl and lower it, you can't leave it like that, just don't tell the insurance!!!!! ha ha!!!!

[cabcurtains]

Maybe you could start a new trend, go for the huge wheels to fit the arches, maybe 22"s? Giving a look like the pic :P

Do you still have the receipt then? ... Shouldn't be too hard to get a refund on your girlfriend :D :D

Getting back to the car though..... Everytime you take new pictures it keeps looking better and better. Very nice example.

Now all you need to do is replace the D-4D :lol2:

love your car mate, your front bumpers ace! can you get that bumper for the non facelift shape?

i think your wheels are nice but i reckon 18 or 19s will look more snug in them arches.

nice work mate!!

Technically it can be done but you need new lights and a few other things. Once everything has been bought and the bumper has been painted I would't be surprised if you were looking at £800.
