I cant seem to get the wheels I want in 19s but would these 20s fit? 20 x9.5 WORK Meister Black Wheel 5-114.3 5x114.3 5x4.5 20 x10.5 WORK Meister Black Wheel 5-114.3 5x114.3 5x4.5

I bought a nice car not expecting to have to paint it to be honest, I never planned to do as much work on it as we have. It had a small dent in the front wing from a flying bolt as well as a small rust bubble on one of the rear arches apart from that it was mint. At the time I was under the impression these bits could be touched up for a few hundred pounds according to the previous owner. Thing is the garage who painted the car last time told me it was known for some time there was zero chance of being able to touch the car up as the base tint was no longer available. After the initial pissed off phase I decided that with everything else that was planned for the car we might as well go the whole way and have it re sprayed as good as possible. At least this way you know what you have and the car is solid as a rock so it should never need doing again. I was going to change the colour but I have to say white is very striking on one of these IMO so have decided to go with that again but using a future proof pearl. I got carried away on buying stuff for it, kinda "Jaffa style" and before I knew where I was I had spent 40K on mechanical parts alone. Throw this respray on top along with some new recaros I just bought, the cost of the re trim, a kick ass custom audio fit I have planned, and some new wheels etc and the price of the car and roughly im expecting it to stand me in around 70K. Doing this is a terrible thing to do financially as the car will probably be worth about 7K-10K finnished. But i have wanted to do something like this my whole life so sometimes it is the journey that is important. As soon as it is run in (if we can ever work out how to get it running) we will get it on the dyno and and see what is possible using a big build engine with NOS in one of these. Kyle has told me what he thinks it will do so we shall just have to wait and see :rofl:. In terms of cost of a respray like this, normally you are looking at around 10K but I got a bit of a deal as they are doing it in between jobs to keep the costs down. The flip side of that is I dont exactly know when im getting it back.

I had no choice the paint on mine could not be matched, so I decided to go the whole hog and do it properly rather than just give it a blow over. I really hated the fact the car was white and under the bonnet it was the original off white colour. Chances are this will be the only project car that I ever do so have not cut any corners. Si has seen my Porsche they have done and the job is better than factory, like a sheet of glass all over. So it will be interesting to see what it turns out like when it is finnished.

I had a look to see how my car is coming along today, the whole thing is being taken to bare metal and I am having new arches welded on both sides as well just to be on the safe side. All the windows are either out or coming out as well so it should be one hell of a job when it is done. They are also doing under the bonnet to match so there is a lot of prep being done there as well. Bodyshop of the year two years in a row and it shows to be honest!.

You would so need to have NOS as well to get the thing spinning.

Nice horse Nicci

I am thinking of getting a second opinion so will see if I can get another vet. It has had an MRI and xray and nothing shows. TBH I dont think this crappy weather helps as you end up stuck in bored and depressed.

I offered to buy her another one and she just says she wants her one better and bursts into tears again for hours. What was up with yours?

She wont go for that one m8, I think its kind of keep it in a field somewhere for another 15 years. So that is not an option, I think that because we dont have children and we are mid 30s that its like having a sick child for her or something?.

Well none of me but my Owl that lives in my chimney, my black cat Oscar, My Ginger Cat Winston, My Wifes Horse Corroy, and our 1600s gingerbread cottage.

My wife has been really upset for about two months now. Cut a long story short she has a horse that she loves to bits (probably more than me!) and it went lame a few months back. After two grand on vets bills it is still no better and she just sits in doors like a zombie and crys every night. It seemed to get better for a bit but has got worse again. Tonight I come home and she has puffed up eyes and has been crying again for hours. I have tried to take her away, get her out the house, and just cheer her up. Nothing is working. Selfishly I am absolutely hating things at home as I dont know what more I can do and its making me depressed now seeing her this way. Im sick of things being like this and feel helpless.. I struggle to be that symperthetic, but she is very close to it. Any ideas?

I really dont have one, I will need to get one taken.. I have pictures of my cars, my cats, our horse even the owl that lives in my chimney but none of me!

Not sure what they would look like on a white zed, might be too much white? are they any good as far as wheels go?

Wickham Square on boxing day there is a massive car meet there every year

I have a Rolex and it keeps terrible time (they all do), if it is a real self winding jobbie I guess it will do the same.

Looks lush, lets customise it :rofl: Madmax 4 also on the way! http://www.cinematical.com/2009/10/24/mad-max-4-with-sam-worthington/

I love this, I have been thinking seriously about buying it and shipping it over. http://www.lastinterceptor.com/sale/08/

:hurl:

Afraid not they are a secondhand refurbished set. Never mind I will keep my eye out.. I keep wanting to buy a new set but they are around 3K new. Thanks for your help

Here are the sizes 18 x 9 5 x 114.3 40 I really want these wheels if they are the right fitment for the car and (should) fit my new disks. Im not fitting a wide arch kit or anything either!

He said the brake calipers should fit, but he said the wheels are only nine inches wide or something so I might something wider on the back of the zed?. Im sorry guys I really dont have a clue when it comes to wheels, is nine inches wide quite narrow or something?.

Just spoke to the guy and he said they might not be wide enough on the back?

Will these be any good for me? they are 18s not 19s but would they fit a zed and take my new brakes? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Work-Meister-S1-Alloy-wheels-volk-rays-rx7-evo-supra_W0QQitemZ170400993744QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Trims_Car_Rims_ET?hash=item27acb0d1d0
