Title: My winter wheels
Post by: Altered Carbon on January 11, 2009, 04:33:59 pm

Hi all,

Thought I'd better join up here too!  :happy2:

Anyway, just got my 'winter' wheels back - decided I wanted to try and keep the Pescaras as mint as possible, so after some searching and plenty of pondering, I decided to try and find a set of Monzas and get them refurbed black - a la Rockinghams. I was going to go the whole hog and get the lip diamond cut so they looked exactly the same, but a) finding somewhere that would take the job on was a pain and b) the point in getting winter wheels was supposed to be that I'd be less para about scraping them - which wouldn't be the case with a diamond cut edge on them!

They're matt black finish - should look good on my CW Edition 30. Just need to get some Jetseal on them and they'll be ready for fitting.

Some poor phone pics of them at the mo - I'll stick some further pics up once I've got them on the car.
