Default New alloys :)

Took a while to find a good set, but I'm more than happy with these and well worth the wait. Cant wait to get them on my car






Finally can get rid of my Softline 15s

Absolutley, happy chappy, i was going to by a set of 5 for £150 which needed all refurbing. I held my nerve and these beauties came along, was going to Diamond cut them, however im loving the finish as they are atm.

They wasn't and never were. These have always been known as RS turbo alloys. Nothing like dogleg alloys which was the name given the the early MK4 XR3i alloys(pre lattice alloys as fitted to the late models)
