Post by: Gadge on October 04, 2015, 04:46:02 PM: Looks pretty good and reminds me of my first one :) what tyre size are you using? Are they 145 70's?

Post by: mintex on October 04, 2015, 06:26:43 PM: Thanks for the comments all, i did polish it the day before :)
Gadge the tyres are 165/65/13, they were on it when i bought it.
I was going to buy new alloy wheels and different sizes tyres but not sure if i will or just keep it original ?

Post by: mintex on October 04, 2015, 08:57:44 PM: sadly its not quite spotless, it does polish up well but needs a few bits doing, some on the front drivers side arch, a little bit under the side repeater indicator and around the rear wiper spindle.

I hope to touch it up and blend it in once my garage is up and built.

Shielsy your resto thread is PAGES long filled with people telling you what a good job you've done - it's even made it into a magazine so stop complaining when other people commend an honest original car that's probably been ran on a shoe string. Stop being a baby and spoiling other people's thread >:(

So are you saying mines a rough badger?

Post by: Bambino126 on October 18, 2015, 07:11:47 PM: Mintex, do you have any problems with those 165/65/13's rubbing on the arches at all?

I'm just trying out a set of the cinquecento 4-spoke alloys, they came fitted with 165/65/13's and they're all right when going along, but the front right rubs when you hit a speed hump, and the front left rubs under hard braking.
They sometimes also catch when reversing or parking. ???

Post by: mintex on October 18, 2015, 08:47:18 PM: No mine are fine and don't rub but i'm on standard wheels.
You might need to change yours for 165/55 R13 with having the cinquecento alloys
