One of the rims is getting a refurb (the stud hole needs redoing) so they are not on the car at the moment.

I'm hoping to have all four on the car next week. The problem is the rear tyres are HUGE on the J9's. So they'll upset the handling. But what I'll do is shread the rears by driving like a prat until I need new ones and then re-do all four.

I need to get some good pics (instead of the rubbish shakey hand cam ones) and then Photoshop the spokes different colours (red, gold, black, silver, grey).

Those rims still look rubbish to me, but they do offer HUGE BBK caliper clearance
