    Thanks for kind words.

    I can take one from further back side on if that's a request?
    I like them and the braking and handling and acceleration difference is awesome!!!

    Bit of a expensive gamble. I'm not even 100% sure I like them :/

    I'll leave them till
    A) they grow on me
    Or
    B) find something better

    What style would you use ?

    Lol whenever you have a chance. Can get a good idea how they look from those pics for now.

    Where did you get the wheels from?

    Some nice short chrome lugs would suit better.

    not necessarily the style but the length.

    this is the only pic I have .
    I went with the rays black 35mm duraluminium
    looks much cleaner but comes down to personal taste.

    I think having lock nuts that protrude from the wheel makes them a bit redundant. Too easy to get some locking pliers onto them. Get some shorter ones man. Otherwise looks awesome!

    I don't mind the look but the man raises a good point...

    Anti 14.7 x 14.7 = 44.1

    I can finally take your car seriously with the new wheels. Like the others, bin the wheel nuts!

    One of the few things I can agree with Anti on when it comes to aesthetics :p

    Wheels look absolute kickarse Procky! It just simply looks tough in the below shot:

    Regarding the lug nuts, they look ok on the fronts since they aren't actually protruding but the rears in my opinion look odd plus from memory (many years back), I don't think it's legal to have the nuts protruding so far outside of the wheel...might be worth checking up on.

    Also, I don't get the below comment:

    From what I could see in your photos with them fitted, they are all standard nuts (no security nuts with a unique removal bit) so someone could just use a normal wheel brace to remove them if they wanted to. Furthermore I don't think you'll get the leverage required with locking pliers anyway ;)

    But yeah, she looks wicked man...if I were you, I'd be extremely pleased with myself :cool:

    Cheers,

    Craig

    Time to reveal things

    Ok so lately I have been fixing alt of small stock things on the zed like wiring. Lines, window motors etc.

    I also went and got a tune done at MRC a few weeks ago.
    Changed a few things
    And managed to pull this....

    As can be seen, 409.5rwkw. Joined the 400club finally. Was really happy with this as its what my builds goal was an is alot more indicative of what the engine was built to handle and the GTX turbos can produce.


    Also at the UAS dyno day recently my new SSR SP1's wrapped in 285 rubber got alot of attention from fellow enthusiasts and camera man alike.
    I have to agree with 90TTZ.
    It took my car to a whole new level. Very happy with them.
