Default Washed and New Wheels Fitted

Guys

Managed to finally wash my car (1st time this year)

Out came the Gazebo and SuperSnow




Got my wheels from the recent Rota Groupbuy and RAYS Lugs




Sealed with Poorboys Wheel Sealant (thanks to Serious Performance)




Going for full Nitrogen Uniflate tomorrow

What do you think?

Wheels look brilliant. Lock nuts to secure those wheels are a must I think.

A mate at work has just ordered 2 complete kits from US - Projectors, Ballasts and OEM wiring (2.5" Projector and a 3" Projector). I'm sure I'll be leading some advice along the way. You could do the same mate
