Can i ask a few dumb questions!? 1. Do these sizes mean I can use the standard Bridgstones I have just bought on them! Or do i need new tyres? 2. Is the black/satin two different things? Doesn't gloss black look crap? Is the matt satin the best looking?

No :( you will need different sized fronts - minimum width for the 7" wide front is 195mm (which is the size most people use) - the car feels much better (imo) using the 16" fronts with a wider tyre thumbsup

The satin black is a mildly shiny finish - looks great in the flesh - I don't think gloss black would suit the wheels, and yes satin is definately the best looking B)

Mandarinvx Whats the chances of getting them to remove the size casting in the front face of the wheel I think it would look better without that!!!!! Thats just my thoughts.

I've made a mistake on the EU delivery I'm afraid - it is £25+VAT, but that is for a carton, of which there will be two (two wheels in each carton), so a total of £50+VAT, bring the total for a set, delivered to Europe including tax, to £658 At todays exchange rate that comes out at €830 all in There is no change to GB delivery @ £15

He has checked with AP today - yes they will fit

They are quite close with the ET25 offset, so I'd suggest we go with ET20, unless anyone has any objections :unsure:
