Those wheels look great! I have a tip for your speaker magnet tip: Wrap the magnet in cling-film (or put it in a plastic bag), then you can just peel it off with all the shavings ;-) Saves you hours unpicking the things.
looks great. makes me want to upgrade to modern wheels. noticed the center console brace H bracket is missing. it's a structural part tying in the scuttle to the frame. will also make installing two gauges nice. cheers.
Wheels look great in your 1500, although I went in another direction with wheels on my MK lll. Removed the not so good looking alu wheels, and installed steel rims size 5 1/2 " painted white like they came from new. BTW. Where is your Centre Console?
Enjoying your excellent videos. Just acquired a mk4 spit. Much bodywork to sort! There's a surprise......Daft question, what camera are you using for these videos? Cheers, steve
Big improvement looks like. Would be good to know how you got on over the months with the larger wheels. I’ve been thinking of something similar, perhaps the minilite alloy wheels. Is there any concerns needed regarding the brake system and stopping etc with larger diameter wheels ? But then would it matter if your tyre profile is smaller so 15 / 50 tyer and wheel or 13 / 80 it would be about the same size over all wouldn’t it ? Just better looking less tyer wall to look at
They are MGF 15". I *think* they are 185/45's. No issues with rubbing but i wouldn't go any bigger. Some people put travel stops on their steering rack as the Spit has a lot of steering travel
