What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

Yeah, I’m happy with them. Love the look of them.

Only downside is I can’t get my hands between the spokes so they’re off every weekend to be cleaned which is annoying.

I’ve toyed with the idea of selling them but can’t find anything to replace them. You fancy some or already got them?

Yes i'm seriously tempted with the 20" bronze ones, but they don't do a stagger in that size 20 x 8.5 only
 
They are great looking wheels but why do you need to take them off to clean them? Wouldn't a wheel brush do the job or is there a reason you wouldn't use one.
I agree that must be a real PITA.

Because with them being silver and part-polished they show up any dirt and my OCD goes haywire if they’re not cleaned properly. And the only way to do that is take them off. It does my head in I even bought a new trolly jack for it. Sad really.

Are you sure they just aren’t out of stock? They defo do a staggered set as Hinckley Camper WRX has a set as winter wheels for his. I was tempted to get them in bronze and wish I did. I love these too. They did have them in bronze a few weeks ago but again must be sold out.

I bought a petrol power washer a few weeks ago (desperado night) and thought of you when it arrived. Its a bit too powerful to wash the van. It nearly blows the bloomin doors off. :laugh:

Did it not come with multiple nozzle ends? I use the one which says for car washing etc and it’s great. It will be out tomorrow most likely! :inlove:

P.S. I burst out laughing when I read it was a drunk purchase :rofl: anything else you have your sober eyes on which could be next? Haha

I thought it was strange because a couple of web sites only stocked 8.5 in bronze with the other colors in 8.5 and 10's and also 22inch but I've looked at so many wheels in the past 18months I'm now coming round to the beginning again so will look for a set of staggered and treat myself ;)

It does come with different nozzle ends and I do use the car wash one but you need to stand about 6ft away and my drives not wide enough so keep on hitting the back of my head on the pillars at the front of the house. Its a real comical site, not quite as amusing as my drunken fire lessons but I'm sure my neighbours all look out their windows when they hear it start up. Its also horrendously loud, I work in construction and a pneumatic breaker is quieter. So to completely finish the look I wear headphones whilst using it.
Sundays are no longer the same on our street.:rolleyes:

Wow, you can see how the badgeless grille was dreampt up. Looks mean as fap like that.
 
Spent the day with the spray glue and carpet.

Fitted the under-seat draw unit built by @Captain Backfire. Just got to floss line it, and fit a kick trim along the bottom once it arrives, but it slots under the rear double absolutely perfect, and makes good use of that wasted space. Well chuffed with the result, thanks Ant :thumbsup:

Got a little carried away with the extra carpet and covered all my side shelving.

Swapped headlights for H4 to H7 and programmed them.
De-badged the Caravelle tailgate I fitted.
Added 6 sheets of Dynamat to the front doors.
