My new rims. 11j et8 + 10j et12 on standard metal

[Chriscooke]

Quite a few of you will of seen my new rims already but seeing as I actually cleaned the car tonight for a car show at the weekend I thought I'd take a few pics

I know there is a lot of hate for Rota's on here but I don't care, I think they look good and are a good price, plus Evilchap at Rarerims (check out their section on here) is a decent guy helping me get the specs I was after

I got the rims as a flat silver with polished lip and then got elvis on here to paint the centers for me for a slightly unique look.

The specs are:

Rear - 11j et8 with goodyear F1 Asym2 245/40/18's
front - 10j et12 with Michelin Pilot 235/40/18's







What do you guys think then?

Cheers buddy, it's nowhere near as clean as yours and definitely needs a blow over to make it one colour again but it'll get there one day

I'm coming up to Taunton tomorrow, may have to go s14 hunting
looks mega dude! How did you get such a smooth arch roll?

[Chriscooke]

Should get yourself to mod mania near honiton on Sunday to see a few

Just used plenty of heat and a decent arch roller. It's not perfect but I've seen far worse.

Me likey! Good work chris , very good choice!

[ANDY black s13]

Looks cool as and nice sizes ,and your rear arches ain't anything as bad as mine came out (I mean yours are perfect and mine are fcuked)
so wish I hadn't done it,used a proper roller and heat gun etc, but went into one and ended up breaking me arch roller
stupid hellaflush slammed media crap stupid idea

Looks really good mate, good tyre choices too, I'm keen to move from 225/40/18 to 235/40/18 to give myself a bit more tyre wall to hopefully improve the ride quality.

[Evilchap]

Looking good Chris - you did a top job on those Arches!

[Chriscooke]

Thanks mate, never did let you have that back on Sunday.

Any chance of a rear profile shot from the rear and front concentrating on wheels, showing the wheel and arch line. On the lookout for some better fitting wheels and debating fitment stats.

Looks nice Chris. Does it rub much?

Closest I've got at the moment are these

Had more flare since this pic

Not to badly, the front right scrubs the arch liner a little on full lock and passenger side needs a bit more arch work as it scrubs a little when loaded up. Will then try and lower the rear a touch.

Its how i like my 200s, nice wheels, sensible suspension level and clean body lines without all this silly 'Darth Vader Helmet' body kit nonsense.

This, *****s, Nash's and Daz's (before he broke it ) are up there as my fav 14as.

[MEL]

Love it!

[gonzomagic]

Look lush, exactly what I am aiming for or there about.

[crazyshad1]

Looks good and a nice choice of wheel, but i think the rear needs tucking slightly.

For me, the poke on the last picture spoils the car.

Cheers guys. Agreed about the last pic. The arch has been rolled more since that pic. It still needs to go a touch lower also but I can be bothered in this heat.

Looking good Chris, couldn't get over how wide they looked on the back at Cheddar! Nice roll as well, looks smooth!
