  3. It will look the part. Have you thought about black or red door handles too
     
  4. What size tyres do you run on your 17's? And what are the specs of your wheels? I'm trying to guage what wheel spec to go for if I go the 17" route
     
  5. 235/45/17 and wheels are 17x9 et43
     
  6. I went for a black roof; wasn't sure at the time but has really grown on me. Just do it - costs very little for a wrap and can be changed back at any time

  7. Yes to black roof
    Defo needs black handles though

  8. Yes handles will be done at the same time. I think it looks smart on red
     
  9. Nice one I was thinking 17x9 just wasn't sure on et but the 45 I've seen should work then.
     
  10. remember not on standard camber setup , the wheel will poke out roughly 30mm more vs oem 19" rims

  19. We want pictures!!!

    I used to run a rays forged wheel - the lmgt4 and apart from it looking ace it was incredibly light and strong. Did literally thousands of track miles over kerbs etc and after many years were still completely true and perfect on the balancer.

  21. How do you find the ad08r's compared with the Federal 595's?

    Better, more dry grip, more sure footed in the wet. The only reason to run RSRs is if your on a budget imo.

  28. Not at all but I've had a set crack on mini so personally won't be using them on a car that I take curbs on track like I'm in a 90s touring car

    I've seen just as many "real" wheels damaged as I have rotas on various track and drift cars.

  33. Just personal experiences I suppose I had plenty of cheap wheels on my cars before and never had an issue but the way I see it now is this car deserves the best it can have and it's not even about branded snobbery as these rays cost me less then a set of rotas so to me makes no sense having something that hasn't had the testing, research and development etc then the real deal. Especially considering the way I drive this car. But hey horses for courses
