B) Well done, you were only saying the other week they are like rockin horse *hit.... Before you go getting to excited I'd invest in a good wheel cleaning brush as they are a complete ***oops*** to clean especially when you catch you knuckles on the valve stems....B) B) Quote
Stuey Posted November 25, 2006 Author Posted November 25, 2006 Well done, you were only saying the other week they are like rockin horse *hit.... Before you go getting to excited I'd invest in a good wheel cleaning brush as they are a complete ***oops*** to clean especially when you catch you knuckles on the valve stems....B) B) I found them by accident on Ebay, I put in Citroen C4 in the search when I was bored at work yesterday and went all the way up to page 12 (yes I was really bored!) and the guy was selling the interior light for £1.99 but in the description the car was a breaker and he was selling everything possible off it. Enter Stuey stage left!! I'm well happy now! oh and Rich, I am almost as much of a car clean Nazi as Ham is so I have plenty of kit, they are from a write off so they will need a bloody good clean. Also the tyres where on it for a week before the guy decided to join in the pile up party, the stickers are still showing!! get in!! Quote
wozza Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 Nice one mate. Guessing non of the wheels need a refurb? Since the car was wrote off just wondering if any are badly scratched etc. Only bad thing is cleaning them. Only thing small enough to get in the little triangle area i have found is a tooth brush.

dave&trace Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 well done Stuey car will look smart.David said stuey has as much chance of getting a set of VTS wheels as i have of getting suzzy whong to move into our spare room!!! B) He was last seen looking on suzzy .com!!!! B) Quote
Welshguy Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 I know I'm going to regret this but how much did you get them for? I'm susposed to be the king of ebay !! Quote
ham's c4vts Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 I use one of those bottle washing brushes you can get to clean baby bottles, you can get them from most chemists like boots etc. theyre ideal as you can get in the little triangle like Wozza was on about. Quote
Stuey Posted November 27, 2006 Author Posted November 27, 2006 I know I'm going to regret this but how much did you get them for? I'm susposed to be the king of ebay !! well my first Ebay purchase...got them for £350 :lol: I have to phone the guy Tuesday night to sort out collection... Quote
Stuey Posted November 28, 2006 Author Posted November 28, 2006 just a quick update...the bloke isnt bringing them to me tommorow as he is not coming anywhere near Nottingham :( but he is going to post them for about the same cost as me driving to Oldham to get collect them :D Quote
Welshguy Posted November 29, 2006 Posted November 29, 2006 Good News - Check his feedback is acceptable before sending him the cash though! I recently (3 weeks ago!) sold my old 18" alloys on ebay - STILL waiting for the guy to collect them with cash on collection, so at the moment the ball is in his court... Quote
Stuey Posted November 29, 2006 Author Posted November 29, 2006 his feedback is perfect...260 sales, 100% and I have his bank details so a couple of calls and I can destroy him if he doesnt send them. Quote
Rich_Eason Posted November 29, 2006 Posted November 29, 2006 ... so a couple of calls and I can destroy him if he doesnt send them. Stuey You are a hard man.... :D :P :D http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/9087/dvaderqo7.jpg Quote
Stuey Posted November 29, 2006 Author Posted November 29, 2006 Darth Vadar?? he is a pussy compared to me in a bad mood. Quote
Stuey Posted December 5, 2006 Author Posted December 5, 2006 just an update...the wheels are on!! nearly broke my jack as the car had to go up so high to get them on. There are a few nicks in them but nothing major. The tyres still have stickers on them so they are fine. Just a bit of info needed really, can someone give me the tyre pressures as my sticker only has the pressures for the 16's or are they the same?? sig is out of date now though... Quote
wozza Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 If i remember correctly should be 37 front 40 rear. 2.5 bar front and 2.7 rear is what i remember which i think was 37 and 40. Quote
Stuey Posted December 5, 2006 Author Posted December 5, 2006 cheers mate, same as the 16's then Quote
