Them Teledials cost me £80 with good tyres prob the cheapest porka ones you'll get along with cookie cutters.. much better than the Fuch that were on it when we bought it

Good point though don't forget to throw somthing over the wheels when spraying Rich

Oh no not rain stop play Sad

You want to try living up here m8... It's been peeing down all week. Bloody typical just when I get the Bus on the road it chucks it down every day

What colour is the bus going jp ? If your flogging those Teledials I've a mate who would be interested in them

It's gonna be White over Light blue Cool

Me and Rich seem to think this will be the most sellable colour combo... our plan is that the boys will want it for it's trickness and their birds will let them have it cause it's a nice colour Grin

Looking forward to seeing Riches skills with a spray gun.. hopefully it will be as good as his prep

White over light blue sound nice. Look forward to seeing the paint job. I'm sure Rich will do a cracking job

What about those Teledials ? Don't tell me your keeping them

My m8 wants them for his Bus Grin

TBH they were the cheapest Porsche wheels I could find and we seem to be stuck with the Porsche PCD as previous owner re-drilled the rear drums.

I'm sure he could get a set for a similar price on Ebay or local free ad papers... these ones were in my local free-ads paper for months could probably of got them cheaper TBH.

He could of had these ones last week for £68 Grin

Didn't realise they were so cheap m8 Probably worth buying a set for future Porsche brake/hub conversions until a nice set can be found Cool

Do you know what the offset is front and rear to fit the Bus ?

Hope the weathers better down South than it is up North so you can get that paint job done

This is a massive file (9meg) and quality is rubbish but if you want to waste some time and bandwidth go for it...

Download Avi Here

A much smaller 3gp file (phone file 119k) can be downloaded HERE if you have summut that will play it.

Anyone know of a free 3gp converter that doesn't convert them into massive files ?

All Primed up and
