10" Wide wheels for the winter. Lol Good Luck. BBS look pretty good though. Get plenty wheel wax on them before you fit them on the car. |

I want a wheel for the winter that still goes with the look in going for and easy to maintain and not as precious as the Style 5's and these seem to fit the bill and hopefully the car wont need to be used to much over winter as im looking for a daily driver anyway so i dont think the 10s will be to much of a problem, I would be happy with a set of Borbet B's also! But yeah im awaiting my center caps still then the wheels will get waxed up, we're talking about giving them a slight scuff back just the top coat to give a key to grip to and going for another coat of laquar just to make sure the wont get damaged with stonechips easly. |

Its great that its flying along and everything is working cool but have to be honest, I dont like the stretching of the tyres, I know its "Euro" style or something, just think it would look better with straight walls and fat tyres. The main thing is that you like them but so dont listen to me. I am however most impressed that a young chap like yourself took on such a project, so Well done bud. |

Well done mate. This project is certainly moving along at a fast rate of knots.
I'm quite eager to see it in the flesh |

Looking very nice mate, those wheels look spot on!
But I have to ask, are those lights even legal being that dark, and are they still as bright at night??Just curious, not being picky. |
