Now officially hunting some badaass rims people.
I know Ive asked and harrassed before, but got actual real money to spend now. :shock:

So show me what youve got.
The more badass the better. :wink:
Got to fit under 340 with a two inch deficit.
Ideally with decent rubber, absolutley everything considered.

All suggestions greatly appreciated.

Nothing that costs more than a nice car though.
:D

Yeah mate was lookin back over the pics of those on the build thread. Theyre still some tasty assed shizzle, fow shaw.
Ideally want a bit of dishy (for me little fishy) but we'll see what comes up eh?
With you being as far as scientificly possible from my front door without actually being in france, id rather not make a holiday out of pick-up.
But theyre definatly in the "hmmmmm mebeez" pile dude.
And thanks for the reply.

Yeah cheers mr M.
Im fully tuned and on a 'hunt the 4x100' mission.
Investigating high and low like Columbo.

Poobay is full of gear, but i'd rather be putting moneys in a V3Mers purse if i get the choice.

the search goes on.

Ha ha ha!
youre too late with the 8-ball dust-caps im afraid, and alost embarrased to say. And as you well know cheeky chops.
An o-ring has slipped into the valve and let my offside rear down twice so far.
Buuuh.
Being uncool is a long hard road fraught with pit-falls, but im not easily skewed.


The wheels behind door number one look right enough man.
And nobody'd try and tax them.

how many pennies would be enough pennies for you to part?

with.

LOL I know you have a set but I found these yest in and amongst other bits and bobs, they could be your spare set lol..

Dunno how they are worth mate (they have no tyres so make me an offer), will they need to be couried?

Regards

:x Buuuh. Dude, just noticed youre in kent.
Whys everyone selling something always from the south?

people in the south have too many nice items.

i feel another revolution brewing.
We should invade York again.

When i said door one, i meant door two as well man.
Dont suppose youre planning a drive out to the badlands anytime soon are you dude?

:lol:

lol ,

I had a set of the err redline magazine ones on my redline ( surprisingly enough ),
bloody things seized on solid and cost me a new set of valves to get shot of them , bit of copperslip on the threads may be a good idea

Also be careful of heavy valve caps as they can upset the tyre balance, albeit not by much.

:shock:
Was wondering what had happened to the handling like!
Thats it, Ive had it, im taking those plastic valve caps off.
Theyve been nowt but trouble.
