shame about the saab wheels, they really made the car imo, not as keen on the ford rims but as long as ur ahppy with it dude. If I can find a cheap enough set of these, bad boys........... ![](http://i6.ebayimg.com/01/i/000/fc/80/aa92_1.JPG) ........I'll quite happily go back to explaining why I have Saab alloys on a Sierra! Deep dish and 3 spoke all in one, what more could you want? ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) Although the RS Turbo rims are still new and different (I'll get bored soon) ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) Tell SWMBO that the weight reduction is for fuel efficiency purposes! Already tried that one ;D afriend of mine had a few diff types of 3 spoke saab rims about will ask him what hes still got(no weighed in ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) ) si

Right as most will know I've painted the car, some of you liked it, some of you hated it! Here is an update...... ![](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a376/robin_xr4i/newpics021.jpg) ![](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a376/robin_xr4i/newpics020.jpg) ![](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a376/robin_xr4i/newpics017.jpg) ![](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a376/robin_xr4i/newpics018.jpg) ......so there! Needs flatting back and another coat to get a better finish. And now for the wheels. I picked up a set of 8jx15 weller wheels, they are total nuts. I was just going to stretch the tyres, but the rims poke sooooo much I think I may need to get some arches for it. Anyway some pics..... ![](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a376/robin_xr4i/wellers2.jpg) ![](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a376/robin_xr4i/wellers1.jpg) ![](http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa183/partsrenault/S8003536.jpg) OOOOOOOOOOORARRRR!

They stick out quite healthily ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) What about putting them on inside out? might be a more suitable offset that way! Paint them matt dark grey please!

Was it much of a pain to change the front wings on a Sierra? Got an '88 for my younger brother where they are quite dented, but because they are welded in place, I was considering to keep them there...

It was quite a pain TBH, it's not a job I could have done myself Cheeqi did it for me (which am thankful for ;D ) The wing as only cheap £20 of ebay for a pattern one, alright fit not great ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

They are welded on which makes it messy, specially if you've not done one before. ![](http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff16/stoppitandtidyup/Markoldxdcard108.jpg)

![](http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff16/stoppitandtidyup/Avatars%20etc/reansigys.jpg) it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png)
