fitted the springs yesterday, what a bastard they were! then got my wheels back today, which were done in black. barely had time to put em on before it got dark so will take some better ones soon.. this is just to give you an idea: (thanks to rik for sorting the wheel spraying and meeting me today!)

Looking good
don't know why, but when I saw the wheels I thought rally car :), should drop a bit more when the springs settle in

these dont handle to bad out of the box, should be a huge inprovement with the new springs. wheels look very sporty in black and go nicely with the car colour. Alround good improvement.
could you get lower profile rubber on them?

could do maybe.. but not by much. i went with a slightly bigger tire to fill the arches more. normally takes 195/55/16 i think.. and i went with 205/55/16. tires are way cheaper in that size too for some reason :S
Looking sweet meng :D much better with the stealth wheels

Looks good mate! Would agree with the smaller profile tyres but then it might make the whole car look a little too weird if the arches aren't filled. Top job tho mate well done.
