    1.This thread is for motoring topics which you feel are not worthy of starting a new thread for, banter from a meet or general motoring related chit chat.

    2.No lonely hearts (This is not a personal dig at anyone, it's how we feel is the best way to describe what we want to avoid. )

    3.Keep it clean.

    4.The Motors charter applies.


    Had to create a new thread, as the last one was on the fritz!

    Have fun everyone.

    The old thread was buggy, it seemed to be affecting most people. The last time that happened it was when the thread got too big. Now, it's no where near as big as it was previously, but sure there's no harm starting a new one to try and fix it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    Lads can someone confirm that the last wheeler dealers was the Ford mustang? Not sure if there was one last Tuesday but on the FB page, Mike said last Thursday that the series was over which leads me to believe that there was one on Tuesday.

    Wheeler.Dealers.S11E07.

    "Ford Mustang" - Mike buys an all time USA motoring Icon – the Ford Mustang made famous by Steve McQueen in Bullitt. This is not just any old fastback – it’s the fastback GT, and people from all over the world flock to the USA to buy rust free examples. Mike’s car is rust free, but it has lots of problems including poor steering and braking, plus flaking paintwork. Edd will have to work hard to transform the car into a machine that will fetch more than £20,000.

    Wheeler.Dealers.S11E08.

    MERCEDES SLK - This one is all about the numbers and Mike sets out to prove you can make money on a car… and you don’t have to spend a fortune! He finds the cheapest SLK in the country. It only has one small problem – the roof does not work, and this is a key part of the appeal of the SLK! Mike gives Edd a fixed packet of cash to get the everything fixed. If Edd overspends, they won’t make a profit!

    Wet weather, summer tyres and a steep hill moving off from the lights.
    I've just done my first accidental wheel spin.

    Might think about winter tyres after my NCT.

    Winter tyres are for quite cold temps, that generally aren't encountered in Ireland over most of the winter :)

    It's a lot more interesting than what usually goes on in here.

    As for your other post, if you have tyres you're not happy with try to swap them ASAP! It's worth a night out in two missed. I'd imagine yours is heavy on them?

    They were on it when i bought the car and as im switching from ridiculously low profile 19's to 225/40/18's again it took abit of saving for premium summer tyres+new rims. Almost there though thank god :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan



    Save your cash I reckon, you've been without a car up up to very recently, the money you'd spend on winters would be better spent elsewhere I reckon.

    You're probably right, if after Christmas (or after the presents are bought) the weather turns particularly cold or white I may but for now I can probably just learn a little bit more. :)

    Haha, thankfully there was no one around to see me spin up. It can only look terrible as a young lad in a small Jap car. I'd be so ashamed. :p

    I've got Continentals so they shouldn't have spun. Never happened in the dry mind, why someone would buy an ST and put ditch finders on it is beyond me. :pac:

    This is true, all seasons would probably be better for us.
    Thinking about it though, 4 new premium tyres would probably cost more than the car. :eek:

    My god, my car came with three different alloys but at least the three that weren't a steel wheel had the same tyres. All different amounts of wear mind you. :rolleyes:

    I love the standard ST wheels, some of the nicest stock rims about.

    So Ive just put on some super dished 17" wheels on my 850CSi. Had 18" Style 32s on it. Didnt quite anticipate it would be so difficult to source the ideal/proper size rears though, 275-40-17. Seems its a tyre size not very well catered for, was easier and cheaper to get 18's in these sizes! :rolleyes:

    I have 2 Goodyear Eagle F1s on it, but wrong size and just look way too small (puny 255-40-17's!). Anyone.. um have some super wide 17" tyres sitting around?
    Check out the crap selection + pricing per tyre, new for this size:

    I dont think Falken's are worth that personally, decent mid range but not a EUR250 tyre. The EUR450 PS2's though, yeah, right.


    PS: Selling the Style 32s, PM me. :pac:

    Maybe, though my feeling is all Stanceworks people want is car running with the the tyres scraping both the ground and the wheel arches, I dont live in an area that tolerates super low cars. Infact even as is (cos it is a bit low, but OEM lowness) when getting the tyres fitted there was a bit of a disaster with the ramps clipping the front bumper and popping part of it off!


    Way too wet and grey today to take any decent photo, here is the smaller dish on the front, the rear you would get lost in. :cool:

    Impromptu and dull photo doesnt do them justice:

    They look seriously cool. I can see the stretch on the back more so than the front, are they skinnier up front?
    The stanceworks stuff is mental really. Some of it can look nice but outside of a car show or a utopia that kind of lowness is just crazy.

    Yep, its a "hot" BMW, so a staggered setup, 8.5" on the front and 10" wide on the rear. None of this rotating fronts and rears after 6mths nonsense here! The fronts are more normal 235-45-17, its the corresponding set (overall diameter within 3%) for the rear thats proving a problem. Ideally, neither should be stretched (aside from looks etc), the front is fine as is, rear as you say visibly has too narrow a tyre on it. The German I bought them from had 205s on the front and 225s on the rear, all Linglongs! :eek:

    Agree on the Stranceworks car show mentality. This is a daily driver, getting 16L/100km, which is just wonderful.. :D

    Lads quick question here, what could I roughly be expected to pay if I wanted Gerry from TI Auto's to have a look over my 156? Just curious, might pay him a visit over the next few weeks but not sure what it would cost.

    Decent summer tyres are perfect in wet weather. Summer doesn't mean sun... If you've got shíte tyres on the car it won't really matter what weather it is.

    While you've small wheels and winters would be relatively inexpensive, I wouldn't bother tbh. Put the money towards a decent mid-range set of summers and drive according to conditions, and you won't have any problems. I'd see all season as a compromise tbh, one that isn't really necessary here.

    Oh Jamesey... you've missed quite a bit. Matt Simis has been educating us all (as usual :D). Suggestive Ireland's climate is probably suited to winter (or certainly non-summer) tyres for 4 months of the year...

    I've Pirelli P6000's on the front and Continental Premium Contact 2's in the rear. Both 195 section, I thought my tyres are fairly good, my throttle control on a wet hill seems like it could use some work though.

    In fairness that guy Jeltz raised some good points and cold weather marked All Seasons sound ideal for here. Thing is you need to check before you buy what type of All Season you are getting. Otherwise 2 sets of tyres work perfectly fine.. maybe not absolutely needed, but a good benefit and nearly no cost for sure.
    Jaysus, you only put the style 32's on the car... and I thought they looked mighty!
    I put the Style 32s on it when I bought it, like 3.5yrs ago! I just re-painted them again recently. :p

    I had my really last ever drive in the E30 yesterday. In the rain, ah so much fun :(:(

    Driving will now just be a method for me to get from D to C ( :D ) no enjoyment whatsoever :(:(:(:(
