just one of my cab at the moment though< new wheels going on in a few days so il post more soon as.

Very nice cabby!

Thats Stunning mate, can I hijack this thread? Calypso cabs are lovely:-

No worries, I had a Sebring grey motorsport cab before this which I thought was the best, as soon as I see this one for sale I knew I was gonna have it, quite rare in this colour. She only sees sunlight though, currently sorn to keep the nasty salt away!

Sebring Grey, lovely colour as well

Look's lush

Looks awesome with alpina wheels

Cheers fellas, I think the alpinas do look good but they are really tatty, so I bought a set of bbs rc reps, hopefully will look even better once they are on.

Mate that looks gorgeous and the interior being white/cream looks good with the red!

Wheels are fitted fellas, she's still on stands at the minute whilst I tinker underneath, soon as she's on the ground and sitting good il post some pics.

Nice cabby, cant wait to see the new wheels.

Nice looking car, any more pictures ?

Cheers fellas, il try getting some pics up of the new wheels on the weekend.

Looks great with the Alp reps, but looking forward to seeing the new ones fitted. Request please; post two identical pics, a before and after on

I should of thought about that, the alpinas are already off and the bbs fitted. Plus the sun ain't shining quite as bright as the picture already shown! Hopefully the shocks will have leveled out by the weekend and il get a picture with the car at the same angle.

can't wait for new pics

Can't wait to see your new rims!

heres a few pics as promised

and a few more

Nice wheelsnare they 17"?

Cheers mate, they are 17" indeed

Looks really stunning

Me likey!! What size of rubbers are you running, and where would I get some from ? I've always liked the alpinas, but these look really nice.

I'm running 205/40/17 all round mate, I loved how the car looked on alpinas but as the wheels were looking tired and the cost of refurb was £280 I thought I'd pay the extra and buy the bbs reps, I paid £400 delivered with spacers and wheel nuts from wheelpower in Devon. Wasn't sure if I liked them at first but when the suspension settled and I cleaned the car I really liked the look, probably gonna space the rears abit more though as they sit in the arch a bit.

Hi Brett, I'm also currently running on 17" Alpina reps, with 205/40 rubber on. What are the spacers for, and are the bbs' 5 or four studs? Arch fit is okay without spacers, surely?

The bbs are four stud mate , the offset of the wheel is et35 so I spaced them out 5mm but ideally I need 10mm all round to fit the arches a bit and save my wheel bearings from taking a hammering. Of course I will then need to get some longer bolts.

That's abosolutely gorgeous mate!

Hi mate i put 16mm spacers on my cab with longer bolts,they sit really nice in the arch.

Hi Brett, Can you please explain the off set to me, I don't understand this.

new wheels look great, although i did like it on the alpina's too
