Don't put that crap on your car.. Save and get something decent IMO. The rims posted below for example.

Looking at sticking with the 17" Rim. I have no complaints with the size
(Currently have 17's) . Will be transferring my current 95% tread Perrelis to the new rims. I Cant justify coughing up more cash for new tires for the 18's tbh.

I'm up for new tires right now, so contemplating a set of white ROTAs for the red Betty. No c$#t has stock of 18x8 white rims though

Really want these, but can't justify the outlay...

Yeh, checked visionr but I'm not sure I should be going any wider than 8.5" on the Betty. Trying to avoid fender work and wheel bearing problems if the rim is too wide/offset isn't spot on.

I could always buy another colour and twist my old man's arm to paint them flat or satin white.

^^ buy another colour and get them painted is the answer I reckon.

those work rims are fkn hot..

Craig, surely you can get a set of 18x8 in 40+ offset from VisionR.

White Rota's are the new black! When I get my car every man and his dog will be doing it!
