Default VIP in sweden

Hi all.

In some weeks my father is going over the sea to check out some cars. He will spend 3 weeks there and hopefully find something to ship. I have a list of stuff to check and send in the container, but the hardest part is to find wheels for me! Both because its hard and expensive for companies in sweden to import. Im looking for Maverick, Leonhard, Weds etc, in looking in the classified section everyday but hard to see those goldlimps im after I appriciate all kind of inputs of used wheels and new, webtip and everything are welcome

realy trying to be able to show the car off on the biggest car exebition next year to be the first true VIP car in swede... please help out

/S

hej,

I am curious what your budget is and what you want for your overall look. Are there any examples of what you want? I personally was going to go with J Line rims and opted not to put that much into rims and will end up with Maya's or something similar.

We need more info as to what you want and how you mod for your end result.

Tack

for the first.

Im going with the TTE lip, Window visor, And the Junction 3piece wing, BCracing coils im now running bilstein dampers but need to get lower. Im locking for some maverick or leonhard/superstar waffe, but everything that is like SEMI closed wheels with depth will be welcome.

This is a verry similar look im after for the first build.
Anyone knows what wheels he is running? LLS on the cap but cant figure it out.



Interior wise its still up for planing.




My budget for wheels and ext mods i hope to get around 3-4000dollars.

The BCracing i already have a realy good price for! And will go for Shine on the exterior parts at first.

/S

Are you reading the thread or just looking at a posted picture and reply right away.
Reading through the post is vital

swegs430 - Good luck on your build, your budget should be enough if you don't go crazy on the rim choice and stick to coils and no air yet!
