Re: MK2 Fiesta Ghia - Low and Slow. *More new wheels*

Postby MK2 Jamie on Thu Apr 21, 2011 2:11 pm

Another new set of wheels! I feel like Burman now :lol: I've been searching for a year a set of these wheels for around a year now and in that time only 2 sets came up for sale and both times I wasn't in a position to buy them until a set came up for sale last week. They are 13X7j ET26 RSL Mohags Unlike other 7j wheels on a MK2 these wont stick out due to the nice offset :Q There in reasonable condition, just need a clean, some paint on the centers and a new set of bolts. Not really sure what colour to go with the centers (Dish is staying polished) gold would be the sensible choice but I would mind a chance, suggestions are welcome. I haven't fitted them yet as I need to get the tryes swapped over. The wheels came with one 145/70 tyre which has a massive stretch :o The dish has been polished by the previous owners but has gone dull from being in storage so I went round one wheel with some metal polish and it came up better then I though. Anyway enough talking, here are the pictures.

Stretch:

Quick polish on the dish:

the spoke design is a bit bland imo, but id say they'd look great white or gold, maybe a dark metallic grey? :)

I know what you mean but I reckon once the centers are painted they'll look better. I reckon I'm gunna go gold again.

good stuff, looks great in motion

ive been told never leave masking paper/tape on longer than needed, remove right after finishing painting, so you dont chip or damage the paint after its dried

Then you'd peel the paint back off? :-? It's fine to leave it on for the length Jamie is.
