Much better choice. Not a fan of team
Dynamics. There on par with wolf race for me. It's like wearing an Armani suit and slipping on a pair of hytec silver shadows!

how much are they new, I cant imagine they are one of the most expensive alloys.
they would really suit your car in a dark colour.

i bought them as they were used for a good price £250.
i was going to recoup some of the money spent on the hg by fitting them and selling the rota,
ive sold the rota and bought more expensive wheels but there oem and suit the car,
i wanted some nice wide wheels, but cba with all the messing about lol
btw anyone know a good fast rd geo setting?

haha sounds like you have the same wheel dilemma as me, I bought some gra's as I didn't want to mess with wide wheel fitting then went to the nbo and spotted a few newages running xxr 527's and I loved them so im going to get some 8.75 wide ones which should fit with minimum trouble.
very interesting thread though keep it up, makes good reading

couldnt remeber them lol
ive had loads of ideas in my head regarding wheels,
xxr 527 are on alot of scoobs, xxr 530 are nice, but a good mate has those on his white scoob lol, they do a 3sdm which is simular, 9.5" et40, but that would need to be redrilled for my car, so alot of messing,
so decided on the prodrives
