That's not all that much heavier than the TDs is it?

Excluding recent £400 group buy that's not a massive amount more for very good looking and less common rim that looks infinity easier to clean?

That's a great deal! I would suggest for everyone to buy them from there as the price I've been quoted works out more than that.

Yup but tyres are quite a bit more price and weight wise.

Still I reckon 99.9% of drivers wouldn't notice the extra weight and 90% of people don't do enough mileage for the extra cost of tyres to be a problem. If people would stop vandalising my car I'd get a set.

I am waiting for a call back from Keith regarding GB. He should give me a call tomorrow.

Due to the extra rotating inertia of the tyres I'd imagine a NA would feel slower using those wheels. That's assuming fitting 215 fronts and 255 rears. In fact I would suspect you would notice the reduction in acceleration on a std turbo. Lets not forget extra weight in tyres has to be moved forward (down the road) AND rotationally. No one has asked, are these wheels bulletproof or bendy? Kind regards, Paul

I like the look of them and like the price! Anybody know how strong the wheels are then? Would they cope with the british pot holes?
