Wrong, needs rims with decent offset before anything else.

I'd hate to think how much money has so far been spent on the car, when that engine bay still looks so so bare....

Is that what the stock intercooler looks like? Reminds me of a piece of kitkat, with the foil still on it.

Depends on the size of the wheel and how tough you want it to look...

Something in an 18 x 9 +30 or an 18 x 9.5 +38 will be pretty tough!

Good choice!!

The RPF1's will be a bit more expensive, but a lighter, better quality wheel... Although it will be harder to get in the right size/offset/PCD!

The Rota's will be half the price and are readily available(through Pro Speed Racing or possibly locally through Vision R) in 5 x 100 18 x 9.5 +38!
