Rado across the ditch

[VeeDub]

I have just jammed my new rims on my rado so thought I might share a pic or two with you lads - now with BBS RS 003 16x7.5" and 16x8.0"

I hunted NZ for nearly 3 years for a set of these wheels and built them up to what they are now over the past few months:

-Original barrels
-Mirror polished 1.5" lips front, 2.0" lips rear
-Original nuts & bolts all mirror polished and still with BBS scripting on all
-Half height centre caps
-New BBS emblems
-195/45/16 Kumho Ecsta Sport tyres
-Centres and barrels powder coated in 'vivica paladilim silver comet' - looks different in all sorts of light, it's a dark metallic silver but looks like battle ship grey in some pics.

Probably a bit OCD and OTT for most people on here but hey, I have the disease and really like them* ;D

Bit of an update with my Corrado.

I sold the wheels to a guy in Luxembourg and made some other changes.

Removed side strips
Added 16v badge on grille
Lupo GTI wipers
Smooth front bumper
New coilovers

Refurbed my other set of rs003:
16x8 et12
16x8.5 et6
Gun metal metallic centres, polished everything else, chrome bolts.
195/45/16 rubber all round.

I have also ordered some Weitec Hicon TX (height & damper adj.) coilovers from the States and have some 195/40/16 T1Rs coming in from London (can't get them here!!). Tyres and new coilovers are due here in December and when they arrive I will be able to go LOWER.












I also sold my mk1 RatPig!
