They are some of the best looking wheels I have seen on a 172. They look spot on as does the rest of the build.

Ohh.. I quite like those wheels. You've gave me ideas now.

If you're ever tempted to cut your rear bumper, I'd gladly swap you (with cash your way) for my iceberg bumper that already has a cutout.

Abit more work done on the clio tonight while we still have decent weather. Got some fault codes to clear.

Majority are airbag related but think I may have a dodgy rear caliper too!
