My new shoes

Post by 2Crooky »

Well the Volks had to go to another home :cry:

I needed the money to help fund my bumper/wing fix and pay off some bills. But i managed to get a tasty replacement set for peanuts 8) :thumleft:

Fronts are 7.5 and the rears are 9.5!!!!!! :shock: 8)

How dare you call them bk299's!!!! :evil: :lol: They are a fairly rare german make called SMC.....BK Racing don't make 9.5" rears. I am not sure if they are genuine or lookalike splits..... Need to take the tyres off to see if there is a weld mark in the circumference of the wheel.

I can't do that though because i drove off with my volk locking nut on my front wheel!!!!!!! ](*,) twit!! So if anyone has Volk duralum nuts and wants to lend me theirs for a day i would be very greatful llol!

sorry buddy :oops:

just look exactly the same as someone down the roads audi.

dish on the back looks HOOOOOOOOOOGE!!!

nakamura is right though, black centres/polished lip has been done to the death now which is why i went for the colour coded lip look last year.

think yours would look good colour coded centre, still get the dark colour/polished effect but with something slightly different.

Cheers dude :thumleft:

I think yours looked the dogs testicles with rev 1/2 rear lights!!! There are soo few turbo's rockin around now with the older style rear lights.

Not only do they look more aggressive than the later model lights, but they are now a rare item to be seen on a 2 8)
