shame about the saab wheels, they really made the car imo, not as keen on the ford rims but as long as ur ahppy with it dude. If I can find a cheap enough set of these, bad boys...........  ........I'll quite happily go back to explaining why I have Saab alloys on a Sierra! Deep dish and 3 spoke all in one, what more could you want?  Although the RS Turbo rims are still new and different (I'll get bored soon)  Tell SWMBO that the weight reduction is for fuel efficiency purposes! Already tried that one ;D afriend of mine had a few diff types of 3 spoke saab rims about will ask him what hes still got(no weighed in  ) si |

Right as most will know I've painted the car, some of you liked it, some of you hated it! Here is an update......     ......so there! Needs flatting back and another coat to get a better finish. And now for the wheels. I picked up a set of 8jx15 weller wheels, they are total nuts. I was just going to stretch the tyres, but the rims poke sooooo much I think I may need to get some arches for it. Anyway some pics.....    OOOOOOOOOOORARRRR! |

They stick out quite healthily  What about putting them on inside out? might be a more suitable offset that way! Paint them matt dark grey please! |

Was it much of a pain to change the front wings on a Sierra? Got an '88 for my younger brother where they are quite dented, but because they are welded in place, I was considering to keep them there...

They are welded on which makes it messy, specially if you've not done one before.  |
| |
 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |
