Would like to thank Dave & Steve at Urban Racing for the swift delivery and fitting of my new wheels.
Whats peoples opinions on them ? They are 8x17" with 225/35 tyres and they fit straight on with out any rubbing. I'm running GAZ coilovers.

I personally think they look awesome in Gunmetal and fill the arches nicely.

They are just crying out for some 330mm brakes now.

I quite like them - and I am a completely fussy bastard with wheels.
Out of curiosity, what is the ET of the wheels etc? I would very much like to change the size of the rears on mine for more width!

Not a performance thing tho, tho it gives wider track i doubt you will notice a difference in handling either way.
IMO fudgeys look a little too far out as its not got stretched tyres. You need the wheels out there, but not the tyres.
