Ollie's AG 200 Progress thread (new wheels)

Just becreful with the goodridge one's. Mine wwhere rubbing agaisnt the wheel. Just far too long. Make massive difference to the brake feel thou!

Thanks for the heads up mate! Going to get them fitted by some specialists but ill remind them that they are too long :wink:

Get them to re-use the original frame that guides the brake hoses over the hub and round the back of the shock using the two rubber grommets that SHOULD be already on the hoses.
 
Yeh, that's what we done in the end. Put some rubber seleves around the lines then mounted them in the orginal brackets. The P clip's they supply are rubbish. If knew how poor they were going be I would not bought them and gne for another make

Still far too long thou. Couldd easily be 2-3 inch shorter
 
Finally managed to source some new OZ centre caps, very costly for a piece of plastic but the little details contribute to the overall look :smile:

After i washed them and sealed them with V7 sealant ready to be fitted on thursday.
I sold my federal rsr tyres and replaced them with Yoko advans which i think are far better for track use:

they do indeed but i didn't buy new, mine are lightly used and they came with the silver carbon caps which don't match the rest of my car :worried:
 
yeah i'm happy, was going to buy new but these came up and are in perfect condition. i would have been stupid not buy them and now i think i will have some nice coilovers by the end of next week :smile:
 
thanks to Simo i managed to get my new wheels/tyres on today. look much nicer and are a fair bit wider than my old ones so i'm happy :smile: just needs to be lowered now.

Looks superb. Definitely needs lowered though as the width and offset of the wheels make it look like a little 4x4 lol.
