Jay.. if you need wheels and tires.. then I know where theres a set of mint BBS 16's with next to new Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's..

Perfect for wet and dry, road/track driving

nothings happend yet with the engine thats why i havnt updated nothing about it...

ScORTED...not botherd to be honest if there shite tyres, but for Ł50 for wheels and tyres theres no point in changing them, plus theres only going to be used on the road, as it aint going on track till its totally finished and that aint going to be late this year and the tyres will be shot by then so il get some decent tyres...most probs yoke parada spec 2s for when it goes on track....

Come on Jay, thats hardly a fair comment considering you and your mate rattle caned that escort in black to give it the 'Rat' look

but to be fair to you.. considering its a rattle can job those wheels look good.. just hope the paint will be hard enough not to chip off easy

Are you coming to the Black Country Rsoc on the 18th
