Did you buy them off the guy on here that was selling some ? Glad to see they went to a good home

Was very tempted to buy these even though they didn't fit the Foz

Real bargain too - congrats they look superb..

disclaimer -*if you're pleased with them that's all that matters* but i really don't like the look of these alloys. the centre hub section is too big and dwarfs the rest of the rim.

again, if they grill your burgers, fair play. just not for me.

Looks lovely mate. Out of interest, I see you've now not got the bridgestone's on, how do you find the ride with different tyres, as i'm sure you will have noticed on the factory fit b'stones, the car tends to tramline abit (alot!). Is it any better.

Not really had a proper play with the new tyres (pzero nero corsa's). Initial thoughts are they are alot quieter than the bridgestones.

Not sure about grip levels yet, although read a few warnings about aquaplaning in very wet conditions!

The tyres are the original standard fitment on the S204's and are designed for track & road use I believe.

I'll get back to you on the handling Luckyscoob....

I thought that about the 06 when I first saw it and to be fair pictures dont do the 06 any justice, But the more I see on the road, the more i like it.

Joggerboy - they really do look good on your car! Glad you are happy with them!

For anyone who is interested, I still have a set of Blitz Technospeed alloys in perfect condition - any takers?

I prefer the standard gold rims!

FWIW the 06 is the best looking scooby shape on the road. The more i look at mine and others, the more i'm in!
