Weren't they the replacement for the venom? Are you keeping them that colour?

Post 488966 by T5frankie on 2012-04-19 21:24:52

Post 488969 by Volvostorm on 2012-04-19 21:28:33

Might be old school, but they are still a great looking set of rims, great choice :D

Post 488971 by craigoodwood on 2012-04-19 21:31:24

no the venom replaced these, the hock's were not long after the original 'stealth'... rare as now, not even tsw has any in stock never mind in volvo fitment :):) ill be leaving them as bright silver for now but may sway toward white...

Look a nice set of wheels, can't wait for a pic of them on the car.

Post 489446 by AndysR on 2012-04-21 09:35:11

Very nice choice and very similar to the wheels used on the saloon BTCC cars, looking forward to seeing them fitted :)

Post 489611 by craigoodwood on 2012-04-21 20:57:15

well they had a 50/50 chance, i brought them knowing they was jaguar fitting with a chance of right or wrong of 2 sizes and yes you guessed it they are wrong..... Image Image Image this is as good as it got, also they are not 'tsw hockenheim' they are 'team dynamics dtm'..... on the plus side they are equally rare and they scrub up lovely and will be on ebay for more than i paid for them :):):)

What's wrong with the size?

Post 489622 by claymore on 2012-04-21 21:12:42

Sorry, I don't understand, what's wrong with them?

Post 489624 by craigoodwood on 2012-04-21 21:15:41

the stud holes on the wheels must be the 5x120.5 jag whereas my 850 is 5x108, i could only just get one bolt in for the pic....

Post 489626 by claymore on 2012-04-21 21:16:33

Ahh, gutted for you mate :(

Post 489633 by shaun850 on 2012-04-21 21:44:41

Bit of a cheapskate with that window tint ain't ya?

Post 489635 by Volvostorm on 2012-04-21 21:46:08

Ahhh, you got a proper jag pcd, now a mondeo jag size. Really shame that, they suit the car. :(

Post 489668 by t5_monkey on 2012-04-21 23:43:20

I'm pretty sure you can get conversion bolts or get them re-drilled from 120 to 108... worth checking out before you get shot anyway!
