Think that looks the dogs myself. Nice work.

Looking good Teddy

, I actually think it looks better than the standard GP wheels.

(Although that front end still looks so wrong without a registration plate!)

That looks ace.

It also looks rather low.

gives it a rally look but now you need it colour coded and halos that would set it off good.

Looks mean my friend....

Inspried by my photoshop effort some months back perhaps...?

Its what I would have done.

I am a big fan of the stock GP wheels, but I actually think it looks better this way.

Teddy - Looks good. I was thinking a -lot- about the CE28N for my GP, too. I ended up going with the BBS RV-F in diamond black. Man, you need to change that antenna to a shorter one so it'll stop hitting the rear spoiler! Good stuff, keep showing us the way, cheers, Steve

The Velox Pro-Gear 10Rev.
The PG-Rev10 is the ultimate in fin design with its lightest weight of 11.5 pounds for 17inch application while maintaining its 690 load rating. The load rating determines the strength of the wheel.

These are the ones I'm looking into. 17x7 with 52 offset. Tires 205/40R17 or something suitable.

I will make a pass on these if any drilling of the lugs is involved though...

Do they come in a lower offset ... perhaps 45mm?
