Very nice indeed!

big emprovement - plus you will notice how they seem to stay clean all by themselves (as the grime tends not to show up so bad)...

Nice choice.

I'm after some Oz Super L's. Only thing is I am undecided, gold or anthracite. So I've been busy amending a few of the above pics so I can decide:










What does everyone else think?

Firstly the tyres are 215/35/18 and they cost £378!!!! from Mytyres.net almost half the price of other tyre shops. As for the locking nuts they havent been delivered yet - Wendy this is your Q!!!??

As for the ST2's they will be for sale as soon as I can polish them.

What is the ride like on 18's?

Any rubbing of the tyres on the arches?

I must admit the anthracite looks very cool.

Have you had the car lowered?

No rubbing at all and as for the ride well its a bit early to tell as I have only driven a few miles since I put them on.

You know you want Anthracite they look so much meaner than tarty old gold!!!!

Yes the car is lowered with Eibachs and they make a massive difference to the handling much firmer on the twisties

Well I had originally ordered anthracite, then they were out of stock and I was told they were out of production. So had to go for the gold instead. In the meantime the anthracite ones became available and I turned them down as I had made my mind up on the gold!
Now you have got me thinking!!!!

Some more images for me to ponder:

Well i have gold ST2's on my Mica Green scooby and was thinking of getting some anthracite super l's for it and this thread has made up my mind.....to defo stick with the ST2's. Just my opinion! The anthracite wheels on a darker car dont make it look as 'fresh or clean'.
