thats the power of Polishing.. seen them done in the usual black or red, and powdercoated white before, but just thought I'd go for something a tad different. ;)

Ha he is indeed
So you taking my rims up there to him ;)

Want to see these in the flesh!!
Oh and there are a couple of sets of adapters on edition going for reasonable money at the moment.
Ones I have might not be thick enough to give you the poke and stretch stance you are wanting
(well if my calculations are rite from the offsets these come in)

They are 7 wide.. dont really want to go wild on poke so looking ideally for a pair of 20's for the rear and 15's for the fronts.. or would go for a set of 20s all round at a push..
if you've got a couple of different sets, I might grab them if I can to see what sits best before blowing a wad on stuff thats going to be no good :shrug:

No worries Tone.. as you see from the pics above, the Birmingham connection is a decent one. :D

Wow, just seen them :drool:

That is amazing compared to what they started from

I'm going there for sure. Definitely worth the road trip! :D

Tone, the bloke that does the polishing is a proper old school fella.. theres two old boys and a middle aged 'tea-boy' that work there .. hes had them a couple of weeks, but hes always busy and you can see why.
