I think we've made a decision
Not everyone will like them but we think they really suit the car without giving it a hardcore +400bhp look because all it's got right now are 220 lazy ponies

OZ Superturismo 8x18 ET20




Will be repainted in silver (or maybe just a litte bit darker).

Like people say Rondells are one of the best looking alloys about thats why so many people have them, but I would go for the 18" cossie rims as hardy no one has them on or I would go for the Azev's A's with the flush centre caps here's a picture below.

hi spec make a monster brake kit that fits under the 18inch std looking wheels..
