which rims

Just had confirmation of the build date for my dooper and the salesman gave me one last chance to change the Spec.

I've added the chili pack so get the 16" blaster rims as standard. All the test cars I've tried had 17" rims which look cool and I don't know whether to spend the extra for the 17's now. I had thought of getting some JCW 18s later but wondered what anyone else prefers.

Flame Spokes do look good. JCWs are as nice as they are expensive. ie VERY. So in that case, go for Flame Spokes.

A wet dream can only become a reality if you chase it...

I like the flame spokes, although mine has blasters and I think they are cool too, they remind me of BMX bike wheels LOL
