Right well as above the wheels are going down to his shop in the new year to be sorted.

Once Xmas is out the way just have a few little jobs to finish on the car:

Finish respray on bumpers
Finish of small spray jobs on engine bay (just to tidy it up)
Buy Tuner Nuts for wheels
Puchase more cleaning products for start of show season

To be honest the list could go on but to get her to a nice standard for show season that should do it.

But as always will have my ear to the ground and eyes open for new bits that may come up for sale

Put some manky, old tyres on and fill them with sand and then weight them in, job done lol

That sucks dude! So I guess you're back to a blank canvas for wheels?


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - DaveEdin - 09-12-2019

Is it just the one wheel, or all of them? If it's just one, chuck that one and keep an eye on fleabay, you sometimes get single wheels popping up on there...

Is it the 18" aero wheels (like the ones I have on my car - see profile pic top left of the post :lol: )?
