Alloys # post de-cat - nil by mouth - 18-05-2012
Since the de - cat process I've found that the hearse carries considerably more speed into and therefore around 40 to 60 mph traffic islands :thumbsup:
However she feels troubled and wallows through corners with a tendancy to slew to the left somewhat :brickwall:
UNTILL NOW , TA-DAH , I'm the proud owner of a set of 15" pug 307 alloys complete with rubber and longer bolts and fitted by seller . . . a mate of a mate of a mate , RESULT :thumbsup:
The difference is quite noticeable , considerably more surefooted :drool:
Bring on the speeding fines

How could you think to post a thread and not give us any pics?? Did they fit straight on with no spacers front and back nil?

I know I'm totally computer illiterate
cratch: I really need a tutorial from swmbo 'cos I've taken pics just need to post illyme: Promise to do it this weekend :thumbsup:The wheels themselves actually came off a lingo that got scrapped so I was confident they would go straight on , and they did .
I was lucky that the seller was a mechanic and storing wheels at the garage where he worked 'cos he fitted them off the ramp and me steelies slung in the back :thumbsup:

Looks good..they're not 307 alloys though, they're "Lasers" (306 XSI wheels)

Close though , only one out
illyme:They are currently off the truck and steelies back on , big D.I.Y. refurb project underway :thumbsup:

Nil, where's the pics gone? and did you use a decat pipe or just a home brew job?
Cheers.

The garage that performed the de-cat simply chopped in a stainless pipe !
