    [QUOTE=Jarred;530055]I'm struggling here.

    What wheels look good on white clipper kit cabbys?

    RS's are an obviously choice, but not nessecarily the best looking. Some sort of Porsche wheel perhaps? I'd don't know. I think I'd prefer 15's though.

    They'd need to be wide too, fill those arches up real nice.

    something to think about

    I've come to like a white tin-top with a Klipper kit. It's on black mesh wheels with polished dish, nothing outrageous and I think it looks excellent.
    Can't find a pic.

    I knew you wouldn't be out of a Mach 1 for to long :
    Blacked out cookies would look cool 7's on the back and 6's on the front for something different ........can pick them up cheap too, adapters are what will cost you as you probably know

    nope. steering rack needs attention. i've ordered new bushes for the rack, hopefully that fixes it.

    drivers seat will need attention, as it's unroadworthy. engine may have a few oil leaks, will need to clean and reasses. strut top mounts are shagged, will need to replace. one of the front shocks is worn, so I'll need to do something about that (probably just get a replacement cheapo for now). Then I'll give it a service, and probably take it down to Tim's so he can tune it up!

    Not sure what I'll do with this one yet. Still not sure if I want to leave it relatively standard and enjoy it as is (and spend more on the mk 2) or go nuts and get it hellaflush.

    Relatively standard gets my vote!
    Replacement roofs are a bit of a killer on these things yeah?

    I've got a few good s/h ones if you just want something for now.

    Congrats on the new car!

    yea saw that one the other day. doesn't really stand out to me. If it was black I'd be laughing, and I'd have it looking pretty rad.

    What I'd really like is a set of corrado steelies! nice and clean and simple!
