Well, they would weigh less than the GP ones I'm fairly sure, if they werent wide enough for 345 section rubber!!!!!

They look superb though.

If there is a suitable photo, I'll try and photoshop them on to a GP.....

they are black with a red rim and red centre hub.

I'll post a picture tonight - will need to scan it off the latest copy of Evo magazine....

dont know the price, but they are fitted to the new "£1,000,000 available to buy by special invite only" Ferrari FXX.


Probably not cheap then.

Not my cup of tea. The ones on the GP are much nicer.

I think you could do a lot worse if you were looking for another set of alloys for the GP....

No it's you and Tony.

I dunno whether it's Tonys photojob but I am not feeling them.

My Works is officially no longer for sale and I am going to pick up my deposit tomorrow.

WHAT A FECKING DISAPOINTMENT !!!!!

Cause the eyes don't like and that thing looks god damn awful. That body kit is something Zeemax would produce. And the power output.....what power output?

I'm not sacrificing Air Con, Rear Seats, basically any creature comforts for 8 friggin bhp.

I am sorry but I am a pretty optimistic guy but even I can't see ANYTHING that could be seen as a positive on that car.

Amazing how someones opinion can change with time....

No proof needed mate - it has 'grown on me' with time, however, I still recognise it as being for from a good, cohesive, all round design.

it is undeniably good value for money if the spec meets your needs....

Each to their own as they say.

It's growing on me, but I don't like the fact that the US Spec car will not receive the Recaros.

It is such a shame you don't get the Recaro's.
