Lovely. So many wheels!

Do you use winter tyres ? Studded perhaps?

love the pics 8-) 8-). I think all wheels are appropriate and simple things are more effective 8-) 8-). therefore mods simple and tastefully done although inside not seen :y :y :y

Thank you for your opinions! Those first aluminum rims were too narrow (7.5/18'') and next (8 / 19'') so they were both inside the arches. Now, although I have a spacer to the rear (20mm). KT5 wheels will divide opinions but at least they are distinguishable from the crowd. I hope that in a positive way. Rings at the moment is getting in front of (8.5) and 215/40 rear (9.5) 235/40. The car has had a variety of wheels, but totally pleasant has not been found, although all of these I liked enough. It is true that the car I've had only one year. Yes, the last image is 17''wheels studded tires. They are mandatory for a certain period here in Finland.

I like to keep it simple. Omega is in itself a nice car, and small changes that may be even finer! :y

And that flattening. ;D One spring was a cross-bow and other real loose. I bought a new identical springs and the car rose a lot. Adjustable platform should buy.

My aim is to get mine sitting on some 19's on prob a -30mm drop on a Weitec suspension kit....

Its all about the rims! :y

Thank you.

Those League 208 Black rims that I had were 19x8 ET35 235/35R19. And weitec -30 suspension kit too. ;)

Keskins are waiting for the summer and summer tires that will be 215/40R18 and 235/40R18. I have to wait for two months yet that I can ride with them :-/ And those keskins need some fix. I'll put pics here when I got them in my omega.

It's so much snow and -30`c frost now. Breathing system is difficult, at least here in Finland. It collects dirt and moisture into it which then freezes. This causes the engine that usually leak oils out from valvecovers. But in my case last winter it leaked from the deck also. I cleaned the breathing pipe from dirt and put some insulation on the pipe. Here in Finland this winter too many V6 has done it, especially heard of 3.2v6 C-vectras. :-[

I changed the computer to 2.5v6 omegas computer. I dont know do I have to program it to my engine? Also I changed white leds there.

Hehe, I've been working with the front for now and it's starting to look good. I had to do some metal work. Still waiting for new headlamps, bumper and hood. I had to replace the cooler because it leaked fluid from the plastic edge. I hope that this can be back on the road as quickly as possible. New grill came to me today : ;D

Superb looking car :y Looks best with the alloys in the first 3 or 4 photo's. ;)

Title: Re: Opel Omega MV6
Post by Wlle on 26. Mar 2011 at 19:49

Thnx. Those first alloys where very nice but too narrow (7 or 7½'') and ET35 so it was too hard to get them out in the back. I think now the keskins 9,5'' ET35 with 20mm spacer (->ET15) will be good :)

Omega is back. I'm not sure about that will i paint the grill to black like the car.
