    Looks like they've done a good job mate
     
  2. Thanks for the response, no rush but perhaps you could measure some point in the future middle of the wheel to the arch, I can do the same with my OEM set up and see the drop thats been taken.

    As said no rush and I don't expect you to go out your way but if by random chance your by your car with a tape measure would be interesting to know :smile: thanks again car looks stunning! credit to you.

    I like the team dynamics more than the wheels on the back! Suits it more and gives it that track racer look.
     
  10. Your not the 1st to say that

  22. Is it my vision or the one on the right has a spoke less?
     
  23. Nope your correct in that good eyes batman
     
  24. It has 2 spokes less, I thought throws wheels were rare, seems not that rare by the looks of it, also are the 18s in a 7.5 and a bigger off set ?
     
  25. I have to explain this so many times haha.

    My 18s are a limited edition version of the wheels on the r34 gtr lemans car, only sold in Japan in small numbers

    The ones I also have in 17s are the original mass produced nt03

    New mass produced ones are nt03+m

    So yes mine are like rocking horse shit and the others are more common. Yes et42 vs et43

  27. Good footage, I was there the week before, looks like you had the better weather!
    Nice lines but you were attacking the high curbs, is this what caused the tyre failure?
    Wish my car went round the corners like that without tyre squeal though.
     
  28. Them NT03's cant be that rare ... some lad posts 200 pictures a day of them on Facebook every day :smiley:

    Looked cool to start with now I'm sick of the site of them ha ha

    How did you manage to blow out a DZ03g ? top quality tyre they are
     
  29. aye plenty of pics of it all over the net, their all the same though, car looks nice but I'm not a fan of the wheels myself TBH, bit halfords looking for me .
     
  30. Hahaha I don't build my car or buy my parts to please others my cars built to be different to everyone else's and to drive as well as it can, so if that means me fitting light wheels that are rare and strong then that's what I'll do. Sorry if I offend people buy posting pics of my car but it's simple...don't look at them lol

    In terms of tyre blowing I have absolutely no clue how or why it blew, was fine all day and pressures stayed at 30psi hot. I was taking a bit of curb but not sure if that's why. Either way they are amazing tyres
     
  31. I must say this forum can be full of miserable ***** no wonder it's dead most of the time. The place is soulless.

    Ok I'm not a fan of the wheels as such, but i appreciate the time and effort put into the car, best colour too ;-)
     
  32. Thanks bro appreciate it, I don't expect people to like it, a lot of the "purists" get funny when something as amazing as a Renaultsport sport is touched but hey everything can be improved. As I say I don't care whether someone likes my wheels or gets annoyed over me posting pictures if anything it's going to make me want to do it even more
     
  33. Ha. Good on you Matt. I like the wheels, prefer the 18's aesthetically although I can see the benefit to a 17 for track use.

    I noticed your your post the other day about headlights, but it got lost in all the other posts of your wheels (jk). I agree, the black normal headlights look more aggressive than the xenons.

    Keep up the good work mate.
     
  34. I'm proud of my car and proud to show my pride and joy off to other enthusiasts, some will like some won't

  35. Really liking the red blade!
     
  36. could not say it any better , allot gave me a frown when i stanced out my Twingo RS at the end of my ownership i <3 it looked amazing , but some purist hated it there will always be haters because they are jelly :tongueout:
     
  37. Strange about the tyre .. Maybe pinched/split it on the curb . Like hitting a good curb too lol

    Was it you who lost a front wheel in track too ? Not having much look there eh
     
  38. If I'm honest I think the 245 where a bit wide for the rim but they where free and did well but do think they pinched
     
  39. Nice bit of track driving.

    I bet you checked the wheel bolt torque after each session....
