My naivety is strong ha. Seeing your posts on other threads afterwards got me confused as f**k as you were getting proper technical.

Couldn’t imagine a MP kitted car storming up Shelsley Walsh, it reminds me of that old Top Gear episode. 😂

Should've hooked you up with the rather dubious 18" chrome Lexanis I got off an old Max Power build around then, would've been quite something

Unfortunately a Tiguan texting and driving saw to annihilating my CRX (and my spine) before I could fit them and sold them to a lad with a widearch Corsa B.

Imagine these bad boys going up the twisties on a timed run 🥴

Must weigh a ton! 😂

Aye! This was before I put KW V1s on my Jazz and it weighed down the boot to near enough what I was shooting for fitment-wise 🤣

SUBSTANTIAL quantities of unsprung mass

Previous owner of the wheels was cool as though! He owned the yellow R32 GT (GTS? GTT? 2-door non-R) that was on a couple of Max Power covers and DVDs back in the day and the wheels were intended t

Not sure why it ate the rest of the message there but it did 🤔

I saw that 306 in a car park local to me once. I knew of the car, but certainly didn't expect to see it in real life. It has been crushed since.

Bodykit set to arrive Wednesday. Excited is an understatement 😁

Bit of additional Max Powerage for a fine Tuesday afternoon!

Found a chap selling these old MOMO wheels in 16x7, so gonna pop up to Surrey and get them collected. Same fitment as 182 wheels so gonna get them cleaned up and put my Yokos on 😁

Nice but for proper max power shouldn’t they be tsw venoms? 😂

Some 17” Arospeed RS-GT’s would be more appropriate for the build.

I've seen people charging absolutely biblical prices for Venoms because of the nostalgia factor these days! Same with Vaults as well.

Mine actually came on TSWs of some descrip, but I chopped them for some standard 182 wheels without tyres to fit my Yokos and gauge fitment.

I feel like 17s are at the point where the car would ride in such a way that every imperfection in the road is injected directly into my spinal cord

Nonetheless exceedingly cool period wheels!

You could have some 17’s as “show” wheels then keep the 16‘s for the track.

As it’s a max power build and the whole ethos is OTT styling I recon it’d look a bit under wheeled on 16’s.

Honestly big wheels is where Max Power and I part ways styling-wise. Always liked a bit of function with my form - same way the car will still get tracked and thrashed with the kit.
