New wheels?
 
I will need 4 new tyres soon and with my alloys in a bad way, I've been thinking of a new set of wheels.
My idea is black with a green lip, similar to the dynamics pro race ones.
Anyone ever seen such alloys?

Not seen any like that...

One word of advice though. Don't go with the budget tyres you get on alloy sets.

I can't say I've seen any for sale like that, but I'm sure it's possible to do.
Is this the sort of thing you had in mind?
I think this looks quite smart.

Yeh like that but more of a pin stripe.

I'm sure I have seen some similar, Rota perhaps? Or just get some customised.

This was covered a few days ago. A member was looking at wheels with a green piping, but I cant remember who it was. The company also sold them in red.

To many zeds on black wheels these days

Maxxed_Ross 05-04-11 03:56 PM

too many cars in general on black wheels... seems every limited edition comes with black wheels now

Dan1971 05-04-11 04:28 PM

Are black wheels not allowed then .... Oh well, I'll stop watching these then .... :cry:

mattie007 05-04-11 04:50 PM

Just fancy a change really. And to match my bike :D
The way I look at it....?250 to have the wheels refurbed and ?300 for a decent set of tyres.
Or ?400 for new alloys and I might get ?200 for the 11 spokes.

I'll be first in line for the 11 spokes please....lol

mattie007 05-04-11 06:17 PM

Will do, although id feel guilty selling them to a forum buddy in the state there in!

Hmmmm....

That is with 11 spokes and I wouldnt want the stripe that wide.

My thinking exactly .... I'm in the same position.

mattie007 05-04-11 06:53 PM

Ive learnt from you! :clap2:

haGGard 05-04-11 07:55 PM

Could just get some black alloys and do a DIY job with some rim tape. Like on this motorbike, but they make it for cars too http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MOTORCYCLE-WHE...item4aa7692acc
