the 225 can catch the outer arch at the rear on standard camber on ocasion. I had a diferent problem, because i am running LedaB and 2 degrees negative rear camber the wheel rim hit the strut, so at the rear i have to use a 3mm spacer. If i was on stock cambers i wouldnt have had the clearance issue. These wheels are ET48

Very nice! The wheels on my old Zetec-S were basically the same design (but silver) in 15in version.

I used to HATE washing them. Took ages!

For an unbiased point of view from a fellow Turini owner

They look great.

i destroyed 3 of my last set of wheels, it was a HUGE manhole cover i hit. They dont make the MiM's i had now either, so i looked around for a while for a wheel i liked, most i dont.

The speedlines are very light and very strong, being flow formed using the same technique as the GroupN rally wheels. They also look superb i think.

A lot of the cars on the Monte Carlo rally were running magnesium versions of these wheels.
