#2: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: CD-B3, Location: Salisbury / New ForestPosted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 6:56 am ---- The calipers look great!
Nice and OEM
#3: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: Lowercase, Location: East SussexPosted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:19 am ---- looks good, with them tiny wheels tho, it needs slamming!
#4: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: 206T16, Posted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:29 am ---- They are abit small, would've been better with the 16" versions
#5: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: Ben.M, Location: SuffolkPosted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:33 am ---- Thanks, yeah I know that are a tad small but saw them for sale in good condition and thought why not
What do you mean by slamming it?

He means lowering to compensate for the smaller wheels as there is too much arch room.
#7: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: Ben.M, Location: SuffolkPosted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:42 am ---- Thought thats what he meant, just front lowering then(actually how do you lower the rear anyway?), I was thinking about that but parents arnt pleased with the idea as they say its a modification so the insurance with go right up,

Looking good alloys set it off nicely
How much has your insurance gone up by adding your alloys then?

I had to ring a few when I put alloys on my 106 as most wouldnt entertain me with them on.
#11: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: 206T16, Posted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:50 am ---- Your insurance shouldnt go up that much if you do decide to lower it. My insurance went up £40 when i got a full bodykit and everything else to go along with it.
Plus if its your insurance and you pay, what does it matter what your M&D think?
#12: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: Ben.M, Location: SuffolkPosted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:53 am ---- It matter because its not under my name yet lol When it is i'll do what I like to it but untill then everything has to go through them.
£40 wow that is not as much as I expected but bare in mine that i'm not even driving this yet so when I do it will be for a 17yr old insurance,

#13: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: 206T16, Posted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:55 am ---- I was surprised at it aswell, i was only 23 at the time.
Have you actually passed your test yet
#14: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: Mikey2uk, Location: StevenagePosted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 7:57 am ---- To be honest then I would personally stop modding as you are going to be paying a high price for insurance as it is due to your age, which is a shame but thats how it is.
Wait until you have a couple of NB's behind you.
#15: Re: Couple new pics(with new wheels) Author: Ben.M, Location: SuffolkPosted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 8:01 am ---- Well im not going to mod it much now, just wanted to get the alloys on it because I dont like the look of steels and hubcaps.
Nope not passed it yet, i'm 16 and drive it about once a week on private land. My parents were worried about me getting a moped because i'm not that stable on a push bike lol so they let me get my car early to do some stuff to it early and get a head start on learning to drive which is going well
