nice wheels, bit too angular for a 944 though ??

The Carerra cup wheels look superb on them though.

trouble with the older borbets is they only go up to 16" as well. Am with Stevie though I don't think they would look good on the 944 anyway.

I'll stick with my cup wheels I think.

I've just ordered a load of bits for my car!

I'm going to be busy the next few weeks fitting stuff onto it and the end result should be a handling and braking delight and alos better looking with the rear spoilers I want for it!

I've still yet to sell the rest of the capri and as much as I don't want to I may well brake it up as its worth alot more in bits than as a rolling shell.

More money to spend!

But not on cars, I've a credit card I keep meaning to pay off but never do so any money I have from the capri will go into that. Boring but neccasary!

Don't know if this would be of interest Gav :wink: , but when I was picking up my block last week the nice gentlemen at knight racing serviceswere saying they are planning a 454 ls based small block now add to that the Kinsler fuel injection kit for the LS heads http://www.kinsler.com/manifolds2/manifoldsGM.htm and I don't think anyone would be looking at your wheels 8) :twisted:

Ah, nice to see those alloys again! ain't seen a set for ages. On reflection Stevie I think you're right, a bit too angular for the 944 but look amazing on that granada! (that's not your car in an earlier guise is it?)

A previous car....unfortunately I got fed up welding it, so it had to die.

Green car was its replacement....

Id love to do black again, but it'd be a lot of work, and hassle to do it right. Plus Id need a black interior, which I dont have anymore...

green car has green seats, green carpet etc :S
