Sorry I'm afraid I don't. They're a really nice set of rims though I'm sure someone on here or TGTT will snap them up :)

How much is it costing you to get them powdercoated if you don't mind me asking? That'll make them easier to sell I guess!

What are your plans for the V now?

Looking forward to seeing them fitted :)

How come you bought new lug nuts?

Sorry mate been out tonight and havn't had time to post up the pictures lol and i got the original sparco wheel nuts but they are for a mazda mx5 and i think the thread is 12x1.25 not 1.5, im not 100% sure but either way ive gone for the annodised blue lug nuts which goes with the blue centre bits i painted, looks very tidy, ull see tomoz when i get the pics up lol

Amjad, the wheels will be costing arout £100-£110 powdercoating so will be brand new wheels and the new decals will be around a tenner aswell :p

I have lots of plans for the V but just concentrating on saving for coilover at the minute and the money from the Enkeis will go towards these aswell, then it will be mainly looking into handling mods for the time being but i really just want a front mount so i can cut out the front bumper and get that painted up as it needs doing anyway lol im not sure whats next really, maybe coilies but im also in need of brakes :/ god it never stops lmao

Really pleased with how the wheels came out, its asking for coilovers i know but they will be orderd in the future :(

Before the wheels came on i also got a relocation filter to the front bumper and i also bought a shorter belt for a/c deletion, so off i went at removing the A/C, with a guid i used of here it all went smoothly and had no problems at all, and i still cant get over how heavy the pump and bracket is just itself. well it all went well and the filter is on, here some pics of the engine bay and the front filter (The engine bay is just calling out to remove the top mount, i know lol)

So ye another small progress update but so happy with it at the moment and very happy with the performance :D

So as now the sparcos are on the Enkei wheels will be up for sale, heres a few pictures of the wheels and the tyres and how much tread there is left on them, i have also shown the reason why i am getting them refurbed as the paint has become to bubble, crack and flake, they will all be freshly powdercoated in white with new Enkei decals, there is no centre caps as i didnt recieve any with them, anyway heres the pics:

Ye defo coilies next, was a debate for coilies or FMIC but think coilies will make the better difference lol

As for the powdercoaters they don't really repair wheels mate, if there small kerbage he might just grind it off but i think he specialises more into the quality of the powdercoating, i personally think its the best ive seen and im very pleased with my sparco's

A mate of mine Simon@fiske automotive needed a shell for a project, he found it in the hands of a well known (until recently) breaker. 

He bought it with the intention of using it for that project, however I showed interest in buying it back, and here we are!
