Those wheels are bordering upon illegal in the fashion stakes.

They look like Mikey K's old chaved up wheels on his 00/01. Evos or whatever they were.

Well, they're at least corporate and look less like heavy Datsun 120Y hubcaps than the vile affairs thay've had for the last few years.

The wheels aren't fantastic... but as has been said they look miles better then the 06 design one, the original 'AP2 Mk1' (as the yanks call them) are by far the best 17" design

I think it's the fact the spokes taper 'the wrong way' that offends people's intuitive sense of engineering.

They're sort of like late NSX wheels gone terribly wrong.

Hub design starts off pretty perfect.

I don't know the more I look at it the more I like it, even the wheels.
