Shaf, this isn't a vote of how good looking you are, if it was then you'd see that button and a 100% of IMOC pressing it!

My main gripe with wheels of that style is that the thick rim and short spokes makes them look like 14's rather than their actual size.

But if you like them that's all that matters :)

his current wheels look good, but theyre 18's, they dont handle. I've been around the outside of him on the corners 15-20mph faster... the new wheels 1" smaller should provide him with more stability.

plus they look fapping awsome, deep dish is the way to go :D

split rims are the best, no contest. :D

People only 'don't like' how can i type that.. because they can't get them from halfords for £500

Blitz as well, fantastic wheels, good on you :D

I cant believe you put this post up after you've ordered them. If everyone come on and said they were rubbish you'd be gutted. You must be mad, luckily its about 50-50. :o :?

Dale says 1" less than 18s so guess that's 17s then :shock:

Cheers mate, I love my 18"s, but I don't love the handling with them on :(

Same ones as on Brook Stevens' car :wink:
