Dare X4s on R56?

Has anyone got pics of an R56 with Dare X4s on? Im thinking of ordering an R56 and trying to decide what to do with the wheels.

I know my effort is not brilliant but it may give you an idea. The car was Mr Mullets yellow test vehicle and the wheels are mini trainers (I presume these are the wheels you are referring to)

I did the one for the r95 works wheels aswell which i think looks great.

Hi Ollie, cheers, it isn't photoshop but a really cheap bit of software that came with my computer 4/5 years ago, its called Mr Presto and you literally put two photos on top of each other then resize them to match using the transparent facility to make sure you have the images overlaying correctly and then rub out the bits you don't want, it really is a 2 minute job even for an idiot like me. Thanks all the same though. Ohh I did a red one aswell cos i hadn't seen a red one with R95s. I hope the owner of the photos don't mind.

And using the same bit of software I did one of my squashed PW MO with vipers.

Only just seen these, thanks for the images. I think putting 18s on just draws attention to the fact that the new mcs really needs lowering, so will be looking at eibachs aswell
