Bad dose of 'Wheel Associated Caterhamitis' the prognosis is not good!

If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!

Hi Lambley, what photo editing software are you using, I've tried this with GIMP (......!) and cutting stuff from google images is quite poor resolution ?

I'm going to start a thread with my attempts on wheels, roll cage, white roof, privacy glass, oh and wheels.

Hi Orchard - and welcome.

I used 'Preview' on my Mac, just free software that come with the system, nothing flash. It's just a case of searching for the right image at approx the right angle, adjusting the colour if needed and cutting it out, I don't use PC's now, just Macs.
After all the time I must have spent deliberating over wheels I've decided to stick with mine for now!

At least it kept me quiet for a few hours.

Cheers, I'm on a PC, I think macs are better for this sort of thing
See my attempt to avoid cutting the grass, walking the dog etc.

2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 USW Santorini Black

Dead easy this "what if" lark. My black 110 has dual finish with Contis and I always wondered what it would be like with white wolfs and MTRs.

So, take side on picture of 110.

Now, photoshop....... Erm......... Sod it, will go old skool

Buy wheels, take them home, get the jack out

Puff and pant a bit more (now I know why you don't see many fat tyre fitters)

Voila!

I rather like it. I know people won't agree and your opinion, even if different to mine, is valid but you aren't right

I think it's holding its own against the might of Skip's 20s here

Holly thread bump, but it’s worth saying how stunning the 110 looks on wolf rims! 2008 2.4 110 Utility Station Wagon XS.
