no seriously i want them!

i may have to go down the same route.

im assuming the wheels had to be sent to the precision engineers to have the machining done?

yeah, luckily i have a few mates that did the job, they were milled for the centre bores, and cnc'd for the offset and caliper clearance (chamfer)

i hate parking next to it, because i look at mine, and his looks better lol

Have to agree it looks too low at the rear, the 5 was setup with a slight nose down look, this is a stunning car but either the rear needs to go up a notch on the rear bar or the front needs to come down a bit.

Can't agree more, suspension is on the list for a decent set up while its sat in the garage over the winter.

Only camera phone quality I'm afraid as my digital chose just the wrong moment to crap out (couldn't really cope with contrast) but I thought I'd share.

wets...i wish...

, 888`s...

, whilst testing the gripper out first time..

, ill have some if you get any though sam...hint, hint buddy..

**Sam Fish** · 25-10-2010, 22:01

Ill see what I can get.
Proper wet tyres are a world apart apparently. Supreme grip that has to be experienced to be believed. and a bit safer than those 888 pal!

I have alot of 15" wets, but not sure about 13" ones at the mo....
