    I like red on black. Always wanted to do it when I had my black 172.
     
  8. Just doesn't suit the cup wheels though imo.

    Just two wheels?
     
  13. Maybe 4 , just need to make my mind up with tyres, I'm thinking of just using a set of the AD08Rs or the pilot super sports all year round for track and road save messing around changing wheels
     
  14. That's what I've done Steve. I just can't part with the spare set of wheels though.

    I have a set of r wheels winging there way over to me :smiley:
     
  16. Know what you mean but I just carnt be bothered changing wheels, it's a job I hate, going to bang the set with the R888s on tomorrow and just run them till they need replacing then buy a full set of something that will do everything so I'm open to suggestions on what tyre will be good a all rounder that's why I was thinking of the AD08Rs or the PSS .
     
  17. Well after my 'test drive' today I would recommend the AD08r's :wink:
     
  18. What do you mean by the cup wheels?, the wheels I have are standard on the ph2 225 or do I have my wires crossed?

    AD08R's 300% Steve, I was blown away by them on a mates car.
     
  21. On a phase 1 though aren't they?, phase 2 all have my wheels on I thought.

    Finally fitted the replacement HID kit that I bought in January. No more shitty halogen light.
     
  23. how ow easy was it?, are they ok in standard headlights, I have r26r lights which are halogen.

    Will. RSM Moderator RSM Moderator

    Pretty easy. Bumper off. Light unit out. Take old bulb out. Fit new kit. Put back together.

    I have a projector headlight until though which makes it legal. Not sure if the R26.R came with projector style?
     
  25. They have that beam deflector type deal in them

    Then buy some. Cost like £35-£50 and as easy as I mentioned above to fit.
     
  27. I'm going to now, like you say the halogen are cr'p, even with 110watt bulbs.
