Winter wheels for the T?




…just kidding. Some new steelies for one of the work trucks.

Why is it after all these years of supersize alloys being the hoop of choice I still think a small diameter steelie looks so cool on anything!
Maybe it’s the hankering for a compliant ride over our shocking roads.

I’m with you. There’s something really nice about a decent steelie on a utility / basic vehicle that just looks ‘right’ - I think the lack of over-fussy styling helps.

I bet a nice set of steelies would work well on the T?

Would the gold Clio Williams wheel fit ? I've always liked them.

I've seen a Trophy with these fitted. I'll be honest, I personally think a 15" wheel looks a bit odd with the Mk2 body shell unless it has a big drop on the suspension. I feel Renault got it pretty much spot on with the Turini on the 172 Cup and our Trophy's - it's a cracker of a wheel design and suits the car so well.

A hot Clio & an even hotter Mini ( looks have never been more deceiving ) ...



Nice to have some (slightly enforced) time in this pair of fabulous machines this week. Reminding me we really must use them more for their intended purpose.

Cracking snap there Ed, reminds me of that Fr. Ted episode,
where Dougal gets a lesson in perspective, small/far away

Got to love the original paint on these cars Nick. #407 came up like a mirror today just with a bit of aqua-wax..
