White FR to Black Cupra - Cupra Now Sold :(

[Scott-o]

Doesn't look very good in that pic, wasn't settled and just out the window, hopefully find time after work this afty to clean it up properly! The brakes are fully on show aswell now so gonna have to refurb them sometime soon lol

Had a little blast last night in the pouring rain on a road I know like the back of my hand and it felt miles better. I've always defended the paradas in the wet but then doubting myself but now I'll defend them again lol turn in feels better, accelerating out of bends feels better and straight line grip is better

 

[CluneZ]

feel like a bit of a stalker but you havent got my message on CCUK have you lmao

just to keep on topic a little bit the wheels look quality lol

 

[Scott-o]

[mazzerati]

[Scott-o]

Cheers mate, probs best compliment ever haha

 

[Scott-o]

Gave the car a good clean and very quick wax this afty:

Fitments on the front:

Whats the offset on the front again Scott?

Im thinking i should maybe have gone for these they are stunning

 

[R1ch85]

Looks ace mate, nice clearance on the brakes too! What offset did you need for that?! Do you have spacers on the rear still?

33 on the front, reckon you could easy get away with like 36/37 tbh, tonnes of clearance! Cheers matey, looking forward to seeing youra when they come too, itl be like Christmas haha

Et33 front and no spacers on the back any more, had a pair of the wheels made in et25 so i wouldn't need them, so they got sold on haha

And cheers, just wish I could take good photos lol

 

[Hartosh1]

Starting to think my et28's are gonna stick miles out i may need to look at getting the arches rolled

 

[Scott-o]

How low do you run the car? Where it catches isn't on the arch, it's sorta where the bumper goes on the wing. Mine had already worn away abit, so it's not too bad haha think if the car was lifted 10mm it wouldn't rub at all, reckon you'll be okay. Might just have to play with the coilies

 

[Hartosh1]

Its not the rubbing im worried about Scott i dont want to stand in front of the car and all i can see is my wheels poking out if you get what i mean?

 

[Scott-o]

I reckon they will clear brakes by miles, if you arnt happy with how far they stick out, worst case you could get them machined down so the et is higher, it's what I was gonna do if they rubbed loads haha think you'll be okay!

 

[pjdj]

Does look spot on..

Did you get a choiceof center cap colour? Or was it just silver?

 

[Scott-o]

Silver were included or blue ones were an extra 40 quid. Might get some more chrome ones and get my dad to spray them gloss black. Need to brighten up the calipers first haha

 

[pjdj]

Yeah.. Didn't notice them at first, but pink isn't a strong look!

 

[John-Cupra_TDI]

New wheels look awesome!!

 

[Scott-o]

Cheers John!

 

[lexyy]

Black 5 spoke ones on yellow mk3 would look mint! I've always wanted a set so thought why not haha

thats exactly what i have in mind!! will be a long way away though unless i can find a set in the right size second hand get some better photos up mate they set the car off perfect in my opinion

edit: never noticed the ones above they never loaded cos i was on my phone

 

[ScottHmk4]
