Looking at wheel options for my white Saph. I want to stay 17".

What people running?

Anyone got Ultralite's?

Have always liked your saph Rod.

Did you have the fog lamp vents made? Would quite like to do that with mine.

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.
