Once again thanks the welcoming coments!
Hope so, am i right in thinking volvos are 4x100 with a rough offset of 35-45? The wheels have an offset of 24 so should be fine.
The wheels are actually 'BCW' don't have a clue what model, there pretty rare. They seem to be a copy of the BBS wheels that come on BMW E30's (what i was looking for originally). Same size, offset etc, its just the lip looks alot nicer.
Hello, new boy!
Re: Hello, new boy!
yep, 4x100 dunno about offset but someone will know (still not learned the lot 
)
They do look dead nice like, i was looking at getting some E30 BBS's too, but then i got the Leo's so i'll have to stick with them for a bit lol

Re: Hello, new boy!
Come on then, what's in the Mini? I spy a cheeky oil cooler, banded 10's and Yoko A048R's? Very nice EK4 too. A man of taste it would seem, and now he wants a V300. :/ (joke lol) they become addictive. I bought one as a cheap/fun/retro RWD winter hack, but have since dropped a turbo motor in and done the usual crap as well as making it my (succesful) mission to obtain a rear louvre. lol. get over the looks of the car and you're laughing. lol
Welcome dude.
Oh yeah, Nimminz is correct. MK2's look the best.
and Ben, it's Lenso but they aren't them lol.

Re: Hello, new boy!
Ohhhh and on the wanting a v300.... I have no idea they're sooooo ugly but its uglyness that has grown on me conciderably. Unlike my mum who is probably going to disown me considering her reaction when i told her, my brother broke down in laughter and thinks im an idiot and my dad wasn't bothered...
Re: Hello, new boy!
that engine bay is fantastic! Based on your current two cars, i cant wait to see what your 300 turns out like!

Re: Hello, new boy!
Its still only a maybe on the 300 i keep seeing nice old honda's pop up! What are they like to drive through the winter? snow etc.
its a 1380 with lots of bits pretty speedy, built the engine in our conservatory.
Rad was from china, one of the ones on ebay, so happy with it. Would recomend to anyone.

Re: Hello, new boy!
With stock 175 tyres they are one of the best cars on the road in the snow. With 195's they are a dog, with anything more you arn't going anywhere.

Re: Hello, new boy!
Bald 195s in surpise heavy snow trying to get home on untreated roads. most steering ive ever done, and the longest journey ive ever made. Think my gle pointed in every direction in every lane of every road that night.Chris_C wrote: With 195's they are a dog, with anything more you arn't going anywhere.
