This might actually be quicker than panelbeating out the hail damage.
Gloss black wheels and it would look really stealth !

Not really....you could always add some padding underneath,like the 70`s Ford LTD`s with the padded vinyl roofs !

Rory's are a hell of a lot smaller (even though they're massive), 390mm is biblical! Can't go any smaller than 19" wheels

massive, a bit of overkill if you ask me.
I wonder what it would weigh and how much sprung weight it will add to the suspension.
On the track/roads, I wonder if the added weight over a smaller say a good 340mm rotor brake set up be an disadvantage.
but impressive none the less... I wonder what the rest of the braking set up is.
Rory's are alot smaller, but still very effective, AP Racing from memory.

Reading the whole thread reveals he's actually lost weight on both sides, and I doubt he's talking about the wrap :)

Also not a fan...only seems to suit certain car types IMO, the Astra ain't one of them :(
Also if the hail damage was to a certain extent this wouldn't work would it ?? ie. in terms of a cure for hail damage...

I was actually being sarcastic as I sold my hail damaged Astra to Mania......sorry was a bit of an 'in' joke !
