Bit of a time warp/black hole on the other side of the carrigeway - the barriers seem to be imploding! Or was there where someone photoshopped out a car? 4/10 could do better!

looks like a smudge on the lens or window as theres a bit more warp to the left.

But the best part is centre stage, thats a great shot !!
Capturing the light on the side just right mmm lovely

I changed from 17's to 18's & find the ride better & the turn in sharper

I (well my brother) changed the colour of my wheels from matt silver (which always looked dirty) to bright silver & they look soooo much better

Here's a pic when they were darker (we've also colour coded the sills & removed the mouldings, tinted the glass, fitted a front splitter.........lol since this pic)

Do you have to do much work to get 18"s on?

Im toying with the possibility of getting a set of 18"s and trying to do as much research as poss Does look good though

Did you colour code the black skirts etc yourself? I bought some Halfords made paint and am thinking of giving it a go myself (after colour coding the vents below the indicators).

Fitting the 18's is no problem (assuming that you stick to 215/35/18 tyres) but offset & tyre can make all the difference.
I had to roll the rear arches to stop my 225/35/18 Yoko's rubbing (altho there are others with 225 Pirelli's & no rubbing .......).

I'm spoilt when it comes to paintwork as we did the colour coding at our workshop
