Ive got a Focus ST and the old man wants alloys on the connect so i said if he gets my spare set sprayed up in anthrasite he can run my standard ones :lol:

Thanks, Gary


u'll need the alloy wheel nuts off the focus

Am loving them! Look well good! :D

Is the van lowered at all, or is it just the way that the pic is taken?

cheers fella.
its not lowered on purpose but was carrying 400ltrs of water that might help a bit and the photograph angle might just make it look that way.

Ahh, 400L of water will lower it a tad ;)

Those wheels really suit it. Do they have a particular model name?

I like using the snowfoam/supersnowfoam/autobritefoam/TFR whatever people want to call it, there are as many types out there as you wish, some more caustic than others and should be used with care as they MIGHT damage trim and usually strip your wax/polish a little, but hey what fun!
