The white ones are very nice.

Good work Jono on pursuing wheels like these and making them available to us.

I might add the car feels so much different... realy it does...it's not my imagination

Johno ... can you weigh one of those new wheels & I'll weigh one of the Schnitzers... I want to know the difference in the weight. The car is quieter on the motorway, it accelerates quicker & the suspension feels so different and I'm using the same tyres.

BTW: Thanks for the pictures Brent.. it's dark at home now

Looks pretty nice, are the wheels 3 piece or 1? I'm guessing 1? Would just like the option to dismantle then paint, but I guess it wouldn't be that hard anyway.

Going to go out on a limb here, But IMHO they look awful on the Ti. The shnitzers looked better. No offence.

Needs more poke or smaller tyre, or just the black/polished lip on silver doesn't cut it for me..

Just one piece Josh.. they aren't $2000 wheels

I might also drop the bum a bit when I do the camber / toe kits... probably about another 20-30 mm

Sorry Kerry.... Shelly's motorsport stripes will never be removed while I own this car.. the extra drop in the rear will be on the menu when I do the camber / toe kits along with a rear suspension rebush and with the new headlining & legal good quality tints

I reckon they look really good and suit the car Glenn. Bloody good job! :)

Thanks for all the comments guys, including yours too John :D . Everbody has different tastes with cars. It'd be pretty boring if we were all the same. I was posting the pictures more for Johno so that people who might be interested can see them on a car...... and its what I've been looking for at a reasonable price.

After seeing that, I don't think they will suit mine without 25mm spacers.

Look good on yours though Glenn! Ah well, maybe my end of year bonus will go to http://wokke.de ....Hmmmm

They are bang on 9kg each
