Luke0549 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Hi guys! Right, so i got a new toy. But my god the wheels are awful i know. They are so awful i have no idea what they are. All i know is the centre cap says "ACE", but browsing the net i have failed to find any wheels that look similar on their website or in general. I have a hatred for 5 spoke wheel. and shitty dish wheels. so these are not top of my list. Anyways, its either get them resprayed and change them. Ill explore the cheaper option first. So would some kind soul like to photoshop my wheels for me? Im thinking of a gunmetal grey colour all over. And would they also be able to lower the car slightly. - Not a huge amount, as i still enjoy my back currently! Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjf1985 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Nice looking car you have there. If you're not all that fond of the wheel style then is it worth getting them refurbished which will cost a bit if done professionally? They're not a very expensive brand of wheel after all.

pjf1985 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Also look on here, you can upload that pic of your car on there and check out some wheel styles and colours http://www.rarerims.co.uk/virtual/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke0549 Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 i can get the wheels redone for £150 (refurb and respray) but a different set of wheels will be £200+tyres minimum. So was just trying to explore the cheaper option first, as if they looked okay ild deal with them. My inital plan was to put 350z rays on. but ill have to buy wheel adaptors, the alloys + tyres and maybe some arch work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK mate fair enough, just thought if you weren't keen on them then why chuck money at them but that is reasonable. You could have the lips done a different colour? May look cool. Anthracite or gunmetal would look decent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

14N Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Isn't there an unwritten law that states you must have gold wheels on an Impeza WRX? And 555 stickers? Or maybe that's just the Scooby's round by me. I think yours is immune anyway, as you haven't got a 'proper' rear spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Referring to my earlier comment that I wrote while I was on the train... Look what I found parked next to me when I got back to the train station car park! Sometime, life has perfect comedy timing Apologies for the cr@p photo. I didn't want anyone to think I was taking a picture of it because I thought it looked good 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooch Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Standard alloys can be picked up real cheap and look a lot better! Had some on my classic, if you have brembos you will need the ones with a little cutouts between the spokes. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261581285746?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D261581285746%26_rdc%3D1 u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke0549 Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 I've managed to buy some standard alloys for £30! Winning. Oh and I'm just waiting on a huge rear spoiler to come up for sale in the correct colour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
