[beezertart]

I just did something a bit silly... My bank manager is gonna kill me...

Watch this space

aw c'mon,gissa clue? just a little one!

 

[daboy3000]

Yeah!

 

[D.K]

Come on you cant just leave us hanging like that

 

[EmDee]

The cat has left the bag...

Okay so they're round and there are four of them.

And no, it's not an Audi badge...

But they weren't that expensive really so don't go getting your hopes up!

And they probably wont fit over the brakes without 4 inch spacers

omg what have i done? The reality is sinking in!

 

[D.K]

If you need spacer's speek to Tris he had a set for sale.

What wheels are they ????

 

[kickassmc2000]

nice lcr, best colour you can't beat oz wheels

 

[EmDee]

you can't beat oz wheels

I hope you can because the ones I just bought aren't OZ!

They're OEM VAG jobbies. I'll leave it at that.

 

[daboy3000]

New R32 wheels?

 

[EmDee]

Ah fak, i cant get them to fit - those Brembos are ginormous!

Tried some 5mm spacers. Still no luck. Tried both 5mm spacers on one wheel. Still no luck!

I'm am now looking for some 3ft spacers and some 1m long lugnuts. That should do the trick...

 

[kickassmc2000]

lol. i'd pay to see that.

 

[Rocky Rocastle]

very nice motor mate.

have i missed what wheels you got or haven't you spilled the beans yet

 

[EmDee]

hehe no I am yet to spill the beans

Thing is they dont fit over the brembos, so I may not be putting them on after all.

When I test fitted them they looked gorgeous, but I'd rather not ruin my car with some giant spacers for the sake of some nice hoops.

for my all dark is the best

 

[EmDee]

for my all dark is the best

I agree mate, but the new ones are silver. This means that when I scuff them to bits I can refurb them anthracite

I spent most of today in traffic after picking up my spacers. They're H&K hubcentric aluminium badboys, 15's for the front and 20's for the rear. Problem is, I got them cheap and as such they didn't come with the extra long lugnuts (although they have never been fitted to a car). So I am now on the hunt for some extra long 12mm wheel bolts.

The saga continues...

Nice clean car there mate oh and the best colour by far

 

[daboy3000]

Did you find them today?

 

[EmDee]

Yeah got the wheels on but still having trouble with spacers. The 15mm ones they sold me are for a Toyota! So right now I have 20mm spacers on the front and none on the back! Not ideal by any means, but the wheels look awesome in my opinion. Eventually the 15's will go on the front and the 20's on the back. I think it's gonna sit just right.
I think they are a bit marmitey though, maybe not to everyone's tastes. I know a lot of you don't like multispokes on Leons. Pics to follow soon.

 

[EmDee]

Pics of my Audi QS alloys

Like I said above, there will be some marmite action going on with these, but I love them

And just for Nev_LCR I got rid of the Nurburgring sticker

 

[D.K]

Very nice

What size spacers did you need in the end ???

 

[daboy3000]

Looking great mate, very OEM and who said multispokes don't look good!
