3 piece Forged Magnesium GT3RR F1M Wheels

Its been a while in the making but a long last we finally get to see the GT3RR F1M wheel design in all its glory for an up and coming build we are involved in.

We have supplied our full carbon fibre aero kit for our freind David Alvarez from Texas USA who over the last few months has been putting together a very special GTR, a full road going GTR GT3, with extra goodues like the full carbon and alcantara interior make over and a few other neat touches like our dry carbon roof and our LiteBlox carbon battery.

As with any build the wheels maketh the car and David has cut no corners in that department either, ordering our latest GT3RR Magnesium F1 wheel, 3 piece configuartion with a concave profile, and its a beauty.

Its not very often a wheel design stops us in our tracks, but this all new F1M design really is a stunner, David went with a matt black centre with Motorsport text and a carbon fibre overlaid outer rim in sizes 12x20 front and 14x20 rear that will house 325/30R20 & 345/30R20 front and rear respectively, its one build we just cant wait to see finished.

The GT3RR F1M is available in Forged Magnesium or Forged Aliminium in a range of sizes from 18" up to 22" in various widths and offsets catered for, offered with a huge range of finishes in 1, 2 or 3 piece configuration.

VAD R56 Mini Flares.

We have been discussing putting our own daily driver R56 Mini's together for a while now, so we thought it was about time we got searching for the right base car, with a Diesel very high on the list, mainly due to its 60+ MPG return as well as the ridiculously cheap £20 road tax a year makes it a very appealing car to daily around whist showing off the product we manufacture and sell for these little bundles of joy.

The first thing we have had to do is get in search mode for the right base model Cooper D and we didn’t just get one pop up, we managed to get two, both great colours with great spec,. We now have in the fleet an 07 pastel blue, with a white roof and mirrors, and a beautiful cream R56 07 plate with matching half leather interior, panoramic roof and every electric option you can think of.

The first job will be to paint the flares ready for fitting and then fitted with our choice of wheel, as our own dedicated flow-form wheel is ready yet and won’t be for a while we have been scouring the market for a 9” wheel in either 16” or 17” size with 3SDM coming to the rescue with their 5.0 design in 9x16 and our desired offset, its a great looking wheel and come with a huge concave profile, so will suit the look of the build to perfection, a white set will adorn the blue Mini and a black set will be fitted to the cream both fitted with 245/45R16 tyres front and rear

We look forward to showing you the finished versions over the next few weeks as they take shape.

Our wheels of choice will be the 3SDM 5.0 9X16, with its deep concave profiled face and low offset, itst he perfect wheel design for the look we are after.

Each car will be de-chromed and have the windows tinted by our good friends over at 1st Choice Tints, who has the task of getting rid of all that chrome bling around the windows, lights, grill and boot lid , we cant wait to bring you the transformation.

The Immaculate Speedwell's Wide Body Supra.

We have been involved with the Speedwells wide body Supra programme for some time now, and it’s been selling well on a global scale which is fantastic for the brand and the conversion, but what gets us really excited is a home grown build and we have two beauties both coming to the end of the process, this particular post is all about the beautiful Supra that our good friend Sean Reid has put together, and this is one that we have simply fell in love with, the metal up close and personal this car is simply breathtaking.

The car isn’t 100% complete, but for the last few months we have been pushing Sean to get the bodywork finished so at least we could shoot the car, and it just goes to show if you give someone enough ear ache, things get done because the Supra was prepared and finished last week ready for our photoshoot, it still need some interior finishing, along with some tuning parts for the engine side of the conversion, but the body work is absolute perfect.

We have seen pictures of Seans car in the build process, but this is the very first time we have actually got to see the car in the flesh and the colour is just beautiful, one of our favourites so far for the Speedwells conversion, the Porsche slate grey suits this car and the lines to perfection and its great to see a new colour on a speedwells widebody Supra.

The chosen location is in Hall Green Birmingham, which is pretty local to the Speedwells HQ, a location we had been discussing over the past couple of weeks with Iby, as he wants to shoot the Porsche 997R at this very location, so we couldn’t resist talking the Supra there, as you can see from the shoot the location turned out perfect.

Sean has so many beautiful details on this Supra with more on the way, we particularly like the halo front and rear light set up, along with the tinted front lenses, and as we said previously the Porsche slate grey colour is an absolute inspired choice, it suits the lines of the wider supra to perfection, its definitely one of our personal favourites and althugh its not the first time this colour has been used on a Supra build but it’s a first for this conversion.

We maybe a little bias but the wheel choice is also on point, it’s our own brand that adorns this build, you just cannot go wrong with a mesh style design, our Forged VM1 maybe some 7 years old now, but its still a beauty and Sean had made his mind up after seeing our old 997 RSR build back in 2013 that this was the wheel he just had to have, with 10.5x19 > 275/30R19 on the front and 13x19>315/30r19 on the rear, which fill the fenders to the maximum, finish in gloss black and matt black contrast to the centre and the inner and outer rims, finished off with polished hardware.

This is one supra we will revisit after the interior and engine upgrades have been completed, as this is one car that deserves all the attention its going to get, for now we are just going to drool over the pictures of this beauty.
