hmm.. I'm afraid to say I'm not that keen! :-S

Just seem a bit small when there's been so much other work done to it to make it look as nice as it does! :)

both look bad to be honest, the 17's were the wrong colour and style to go with the kit and the 15's look....odd!

It looks so mean! Sure ive seen that up mk cruise before.

yea i have been up there a few times m8 you probably did c me.the rims....suprizing enough i have no idea what they are,they came off a r5 turbo, they are 7inchs wide and they did look like porche cup style when they were silver.i think the black wheels go well with the car.not too shore on the cars performance figures but i think it will be around 180bhp after i have fittied my new goodies when i can be bothered.

looks great, its nice to see proper tuners dropping massive rims in favour of small lightweight but still wide wheels. better unsprung weight (1kg = 1bhp) and a crisper turn in.
image lifting up a weights bar and spinning it forward above your head and then imagine doing the same with really light weights on each side. obvious really the engine isnt having to try as hard to spin them.

thumbs up from me.

no as they are 14", i think they look like tipo alloys refurbed anthricite, but i wasn't aware fiat alloys fitted renault?
 
no there not either of these.they are renault/vw fitment.i dunno who make the wheels but they are after market wheels and they did have renault center caps?got rid of them tho.they are old wheel and were in good condition for the money i paid.there were orignally just piss around wheels for santapod and track.but i like them more than i thought i would there 15's and the rims are 7 inches wide which i thought was rare for 15" wheels?
 
thanks:) im from northampton.iv had enough people cussing them and i think they look good and so do my m8's.spose very1's different but im going for a steal look now i think.meshing the bumper black and getting the intercooler painted black too.
 
Thats usually the kind of car I wouldnt like, but recently I'm finding myself liking that style of machine more and more. I think it looks pretty mean, and if it's a tubby then it's going to have the muscle to match the looks - which is the most important thing in my mind if you are going to make a car look like that.

Fair play, I like it.

Think they look mint, as does your car...nice work.

I recently dropped from 17's to 15's and the difference is immense. :)
