I have the chance to buy this, should I do it?

[LB.Motoring]

I've been working on my new house, taking mad pictures as I go along, (will make a uber thread when the house is nearing completion)
Anyways, Ive been finding cool ish to put in it, so far my dad scored bowling alley lanes from a place being demo'd (going to use them for counters)


Thinking about making some cool end tables, topped with glass,


I have the opportunity to buy maybe 1 or 2 of the rims off the Arrow F1 2002 Chassis, should I do it? roughly 140$~

Do it. Ive got 3 brand new 19" ADR's that are graphite with a chrome lip that Im using as a table. Just lay a peice of round glass over them and it makes a sweet table!

[DALAZ_68]

u have a house, which to me tells me u know ur priorities, with that said, if ur not sacrificing anything to get em and ur not gonna have ot be living off sodium awsomeness that is ramen soup, i say go for it, if any or all above apply i say fogetaboutit!, unless u dont mind living off ramen for a while lol...

yeah i know its 140$, but to some on this forum that 2 weeks and a 1/2 of survival...


GL on ur decision

[YoungGun]

wtf do it!

[Ben G]

if you have the money why haven't you done it yet

[kensreliableb18b]

come on, 140 for cool end tables? that's cheap. this is a no brainer.

[zenki.life]

if you have the money you can do anything you want. simple as that

[ThatGuy]

Just like these, with clear glass tops = Win

Coolest shit ever.

Your house is cool.

DO IT.

That's cheaper than a pair of Sportmaxx if you really gotta think about it.

[Brian]

Get them if they come with a free t-shirt.

[98koukile]

I guess they're cool because they were F1 but I'd think some baller rims would be better visually for end tables... I'd personally do it though because I love F1

[!Zar!]

$140 is nothing.

So I don't see the whole need for a thread.

If it doesn't work out, sell them.

[HyperTek]

do they still have a tire on them? would be a cool wall piece for a game room.
any idea if they are front or rear? rear is deeep..

if i recall, Arrows became Spyker, then now Force India?
If they where from a more successful team, im sure they would become great collectors item.

[SILEIGHTY_DET]

i made some end tables for my couch out of some wheels and old bar stools . i will post pics when i get home . they look awesome .

[garagelu]

thats a no brainer for me. Such a rare piece for that price. I would at least buy one and put it in the game room or something.

[HyperTek]

if you do get one robby, you better not weld some shit to it or cut it up lol

if it was just some random car wheel, yah make a table, but a f1 wheel is probably a lil too cool to be wasted on a table.

[mrmephistopheles]

We haven't gotten an invite to your pad, Robby...

[ManoNegra]

$140 isn't much but Arrows.... meh

[S14_Kouki]

Its always cool to have random rims around lol

[meteorite_flo]

140 is nothing, get it and use it for decoration! woot!

[Matej]

You can buy better-looking tables for under 140$.

[S14_Kouki]

^ ahahahahahahah^

[Helghast]

Jea, serious. Go to Ikea or something.

[WanganRunner]

do it do it do it do it do it do it

[NoOneBetter]

just do it.

[BrokenWhite240]

Do it..I had Mickey Thomson slicks with round glass on them as my end tables...Pure sexy time:boink:

Not even clllloooossseee to being done,


Wheels have no slick, and will be pricey to ship, still up in the air, they are rears.

[MandTPhotography]

Do it.


Right now.


Baller.

[HyperTek]

yeah go for it, im sure your folks have some round glass laying around you could grab.

Its a trip how old died f1 teams dont keep their cars, they end up in private hands, yet some of the more successful teams like mclaren and ferrari dont really give them up lol

robby just watch some 2002 highlight videos and ask yourself if you want a piece from one of those cars heheh
7e_sztaqU-4

[JeremyR]

[airforceone451]
