Patience is a virtue and all that

Actually I like both sets of wheels. One of the reasons I went for the NA was because I like the wheels. Gotta be careful when changing wheel design on a car as to how it will suit it - can't wait to see the new ones Taylor! You see some cars out there with bling wheels and they make the rest of the car look old. I think you'll get away with it though. Post some pics when you get them.

[AliM]

top job Taylor, looks great. Rab looks stunning when it's clean and shiney!

Just read through all of this. The wheels are not for me, but hey, its not my car

Any idea how much they will weigh each (without tyres)? Theres a wheel weights thread somewhere and these could be added as an option.

I do like your door cards though

[taylor]

not sure on the weight thing tbh, not alot tho, as said they are actually designed for race cars, kit cars and the like so weight saving is at the forefront of the design

feel free to come round and polish my car

[taylor]

bring it over then lol

[taylor]

here

well happy with them, i think they are going to look awesome, although one will have to go back as im not satisfied with it so no idea when they will be on

[taylor]

the wheels are now boxed up ready to go back to image

the wheels are now boxed up ready to go back to image

bummer, did they give you any idea of how long it'll be to fix the one you're not happy with?

[DarrylB]

Are you sending them all back or just the one?

[taylor]

sending them all back, there a few little bits i want looking at on all of them, if im paying so much for wheels i want them to be perfect, and ill keep on sending them back untill they are. i always feel guilty for complaining

[DarrylB]

What tyres are you putting on them? can you get R888's to fit?

[Philplop]

She's gonna be running the standard size Bridgestone's.

[taylor]

Yup standard bridgestone, the wheels are 6.5 up front so i always have the option to go to 195s if understeer ever becomes a problem, tbh ive not really had this tho, image was sent an email today, im getting fairly hacked off now, we are almost into the 9th week iirc

[Toady]

Fair play! if your paying top dolla then expect top quality and nothing less! And its your car, so do whatever YOU want to do to it mate! If its not for everyone then so what!
