Stripes: White Wheel Woes!!!!

[Mike]

I knew you were going to buy one of these back when you had the 197!! It was one car you would never shut up about!

Well worth shouting about too

 

[Mike]

Brilliant deal, or should I say steal!

Apologies if the question has been asked a million times, but how does it compare to your 182?

182 is a go kart and blooming quick.

This feels far more refined, I mean, heated seats! Depends what you are after really, but since I had the White one 2 years ago, I've always preferred them!

Going to see a tidy-looking example with a set of heated seats on Saturday, see what all the fuss is about

When you do, seeing as the ST is now more popular than the clio's on here :eek:

 

[Mike]

So I wanted to get some decent wheels for the car, so saw a bargain set on the bay and bought them.

Anthracite wheels, centre caps too

So this was Stripes before:



And this was her after I swapped tyres and wheels etc



Conclusion? Looks awful lol! So I am going to refurbish the old beaten up wheels and re spray them Arctic White, and the anthracite wheels have already been provisionally sold!

It just doesn't work on a blue car i'm afraid!

Worked well on Cookie the Clio 182, and gloss black worked well on my old 197 (red), but no to this!

 

[Tree200]

Agree, white wheels look far better!

 

[Foxspeed]

was wondering what mine would look like with white wheels ;/

 

[nutnutwelshman]

Not a fan of white wheels my Abil Blue was fantastic with black wheels

 

[Mike]

was wondering what mine would look like with white wheels ;/

Red cars with white wheels are pure sex, my old Red Saxo looked so amazing with white wheels!

 

[Mike]

Well, here is last weekends' work!



So the re-whiting of Stripes has begun!
