Ive just bought the sparco wheel nuts (?45 :cry: ) so will get them on eventually and see how things look, i dont really want to keep the sparcos the same colour so need some suggestions people!!

Im swaying towards just getting them all done a similar colour to the vti ones... mainly cos its easier and cheaper to do :lol:


paint them bronze!! i seen bronze rims with that similar color it looks sick!!

- Mon Sep 24, 2007 4:50 am #23924 Graham, EXACT same Sparcos!!! Mine have a red aluminum trim around the inside. They're in banged-up shape, but when I get them off this winter I may try restoring them a bit and shining them up, or have a place do it professionally.

I just got them like 3 weeks ago, your powdercoat looks amazing, the red on mine fits perfectly with my red and white theme though, and it's out of the ordinary! :)

- Mon Sep 24, 2007 3:36 pm #23957 Yeah yours look in a similar shape to how i got mine, they were a right mess!

I started refurbishing them mysef but couldnt even get at the lip to sand it cos of the spokes so easiest option was to get them powdercoated

Came out amazing though :D

Theyre a crazy offset though, +32 :lol:

Looking sweet. All you need is the ITR sway bar :P


one thing i wish is there were more ITR aftermarket LCAs to use besides the Function7. I would love to have aftermarket ITR LCAs.

- Tue Dec 25, 2007 10:34 am #35248 I got both ends with the D2s luckily so can use either fork or eyelet lca's

I was going to keep my fork type ones and get the D2 lca's, but decided its not really the look im going for - id rather things looked standard than sparkley :lol:

Then these ones came up, the bushes look brand new and its got the hole for the ARB which my old ones didnt, ill get the anti roll bars soon - missed out on a set the other day unfortunately :cry:

- Fri Jan 04, 2008 12:22 pm #36309 £5 and piss easy if the old ones come out - where they joint the chassis the nut tends to round which means big problems :(

I got them off a friend thats why they were so cheap, but theyre £45 for all 4 brand new
