That must have been killer.

I'd say 18s, although I always opt for the smaller size when questioned about wheels, because I think the stance is always better and more refinable.

Looking sweet mate! Timeless classics.

Shame about the necessity of the numberplate, looks so much better without it.

The new new wheels look sweet mate,really change the cars overall look.Definately looks alot meaner now with them on,classic spoke pattern really works on your car dude.

Keep up the good work.

Brad

Edit: Can you not get the fuel cap colour coded that would look pretty sweet?.

well I'm thinking about getting a black fuel cap to match the stealthy front look of the car but not sure.

number plate is only on velcro, i dont run it on the front that often really - normally in the window.

just dying to get it lowered next week now!

Black will go nice with the badge. Colour coded maybe better though.

lowered will look awesome. Get some pictures up soon as it's done, get the plate off for them too! 8)

Yeh i see what you mean now,eiher black or colour coded for sure.I do think colour coding it will look really clean and tie it into the car abit more whereas black may make it stand out just as much as the aluminium grey it is.

Will look lovely lowered,really give it some grunt and look alot meaner 8) .
