Default The RA's new wheels
Set of wheels no.5 arrived this morning thanks to Ralph @ Milsport.

17" Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2. Fitted the Proxes and balanced this afternoon and fitted a few hours ago.

I'm really happy with the way it looks now

Personally preferred it before, but it's such a good looking car

I think it's the skirtless sills that do it for me. Smooth

I prefered the look before tbh. I dont think white wheels look that good on white cars but its a personal opinion.

Nice car though mate.

Very nice.

I've been considering these for set #5 for my own car, you've just made my mind up for me.

PS: which calipers are you running, how is clearance?

Standard 4 pots bud. There's a good amount of clearance, i'd say 10mm ish.
