I like the rim bits but the Firestorm logo is a bit OTT IMO.

If you dont have any HRC bits fitted you could get done by trade discriptions... :lol: :lol:

As above.

The rims look great, but the words on the wheel are a bit ott

Sounds like a high price for that to be honest. A set of curved rim tape is about a tenner on flea bay, there is only two sets of vinyl there to do a bi colour set like that.

Yes. I just got orange ones which I am not going to use for a tenner.

I am not saying these should be that price, they are definitely nicer, but they are just cut vinyl at the end of the day, anything over £25 for the rim stickers I think is a bit high.

I will find out how much I could get these done for!

They seem to offer whatever style of colour or lettering you like.

:lol: that's one of my favourite sayings :) although I have not yet convinced the Missus on that :wink:

I can't vote as I also think the white Firestorm decals on the inner part of the rims look to much, the rest looks good IMO. As Lumpyv says, you should have what you like :thumbup:

Chris.

Just so you know, I am waiting for a price back from my Brother in law who runs a vinyl printing and plotting business. He is going to do the small HRC as either just white or red, or change it to a stripe like the rest as colour printing will not last 5 minutes on a wheel rim without lacquering.

He will supply it in sets of 1/3 wheel diameter strips, curved to fit, on backing paper ready to mount. it will be red vinyl and white vinyl cut and then combined so it is ready to apply in one go.
