Capri Piccys

[CanMan]

Although as i said in my last thread i wasnt ready for a project just yet, today i was offered a Mk3 capri for not to much. Dads had a couple and we raced a few too and i quite like them. But after searching midland wheels and burton power i couldnt find anywheels out of the ordinary. Just wondering if peoples could post up pics of there rides and if anyone has a decent supplier they wouldnt mind sharing a link

Quite like the idea of peper pots with black face and the circles silver, but they don't have enough dish or me and arnt paticually wide. I wana need too tub the arches to get a fat and low look.

Thanks

What about a set of slotteds? I have these in stock. 15-in diameter x 7-in, Capri 4x108 pattern.

I think that BBS cross spokes will look very good on them.

The cheaper look-a-like is Lenso BSX.

I've got slots on mine:

7j, 0et:





I've seen people go upto 8j on the rear...

There was a capri at the retro rides gathering which i think, had banded steels, only got this picture of it though... Clickable thumbnail by the way



But i'm sure someone else has batter pictures of it

Why not look outside the usual?

Might find some ideas in here retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=88684

I would be tempted to with Banded steels with Lotus caps on them. More suited to a Mk1 Capri I admit but I think a Mk3 could pull it off .

[sarkie83]

i've often thought the same but NEVER seen it done...

[JminiSPRITE]

maybe some ford puma blade alloys?

would be interesting to see on a capri....

just happens I'm selling a set!

Thats my car

It's actually Weller's in 8" flavour so not banded! (although I could do with another inch...)

They look like this



As you can see, I take good care of them ;D

Cheers dude, I got them for about 15 quid as well years ago so all in all they have been very good wheels to me! haha

I just noticed my awesome rust hole below my bumper holes as well. I should probably do something about that!
