Default looked what turned up today! New 18's! - update!!!

I know you'll all probably think i'm stupid changing from the MO's but after working on Warren's car recently, i decided that i really wanted to change to look of the car and make it a bit more "flashy" looking, don't get me wrong, the compomotive's are pukka and i love 'em but i saw these and couldn't help myself!
Must say a big thanks to the missus who didn't even bat an eyelid when i told her i wanted new rims ( i suppose she's used to it by now! ) that or the fact she has 5 horses so can't argue

well, what do you reckon then??

Gary - i'll think you'll find the missus will now require 7 horses, not 5, to keep her from moaning.

Unlucky

Update: Went down to R tec today to have them fitted but it turns out they are for pug's! they dont have the plastic centre rings and are direct fitment, the ford hub centre should be 63.4mm but these are 65.1 so this means they will not centre correctly and put all the stress on the studs! NOT GOOD but, i'm sure there is a nice bloke in work that can make me some 1.7mm thick collars to sit on the hub to locate the wheel!
So hopefully next weekend, they'll be on!!
