How big is BIG?

[Rogue]

So, sometimes people say to me: "Hey Rogue, I hear you've got some big ideas for the MR2 Roadster. But just how big are they?"

And I say: "They're this big:"



So they say: "Sure, that's pretty but how big is it? I need some kind of context"

And I say: "Well, they're about this tall..."



"...and about this wide:"



And then they go on to say things about handling and tyre prices and the speedo being about 9.6% out and I put my fingers in my ears and say:

"la-la-la-la-la-la-can't-hear-you-la-la-la-la-la"

Hey Patrick
Will a MRS have the power to turn those hoops?
20s????

On a different note have you got a rear strut brace you can flog me?

[MegatronUK]

They must have come from a pretty bling-ed up HGV

[MegatronUK]

Are you going to paint the tyres on?

[Andy Jones]

Ooooh! They are pwetty 19s?

Hey Patrick
Will a MRS have the power to turn those hoops?

Mine will... Have a look at my profile.

20s????

I'm not quite that brave! The wheels in the pictures are the rears at 19x10.

On a different note have you got a rear strut brace you can flog me?

Almost certainly. Drop me a line on the office number tomorrow - I'm planning to pootle down and see you at Thor on Saturday so I might be able to bring something with me.

Cheers,

Rogue

Now that's just silly!

10" wide looks fat on my R33 GTR!

I'm looking for a reliable supplier for black elastic bands... Hopefully at least these wheels will be visible in the arches - the old 18x7's didn't fill them out as much as I'd hoped:

Yeah, and my Supe is only 9.5"

Mental looking think being created there, methinks

[Mark Edwards]

Bloody hell Patrick!!
Saying that, they look huge in the first pics but after seeing the arches they're going to fill i'm not so sure.

Lovely wheels Patrick, if you need me to bed them in while you transform the toy into something more aggressive I'm happy to fit them to my car

I was very close to getting a set myself but went practical and opted for boring bits instead..... do you have an ETA on the car being ready?

Glad your coming up to Thor

Chaps - do you know if Thor are fully booked up on Sat?

I could do with getting my SAFC fitted and setup, I suspect it's too short notice though

Maybe I'll give them a bell, need to get booked in sometime anyway, just thought it would make a more interesting day out.

I'm hoping to be there on Saturday too, although not on the dyno....

Compensating for something me thinks!!.....

What am I saying, I know he is!

They do look V bling though and are lighter than you'd think. Can't wait to see his face when he kerbs them!!!!

I'm not sure i want to know how you know that!

[Matt@Rogue]

I know his girl friend quite well... but we won't go in to that.

[Mark Edwards]

Digging yourself out of one hole and into another there Matt.
