Post pics of your white Saphs
Looking at wheel options for my white Saph. I want to stay 17".
What people running?
Anyone got Ultralite's?

Loved your car on Dymags Rod!
I think White Saffs look nice on MO's, either 17's or the older type 18's. Or, Glenn's looks really good on Focus RS rims...

I did as well they came from Mark Sheads RS500. Now on Gav Diamonds 3 door it was an error selling them but I already had 3 other sets of wheels. I like the Leggaras 17" on the front & 19" on the rear looks the business in my opinion.

They got about a bit then?! Is that the RS500 that Bruce had? (The written off one, not the stolen one obviously)?

Always thought being 6 spoke made them look too small? Always preferred them in 5 spoke...

It was the stolen one as Bruces other car was not a 500.

1st one was crashed. Bruce bought Marks RS500 & put his 3 door engine in it. I could tell you the price but Mark will start crying.

I don't think multi-spoke wheels really work on a saph. Something with chunky spokes seems to work a bit better. Five and six spokes seem to work well on them I think.
