Track Day Wheels & Tyres
 
Am off to Snetterton on Saturday, and decided to finally get some track day wheels and tyres sorted.

Got some STI 7 wheels off a friend of mine, but didn't fancy the gold.
So thought i'd try my spraying skills.

Didn't take any before pics, so you'll have to just have the after ones!!!

And to go with them i treated myself to a set of R888's.

Will be getting them fitted this week, then off to Snetterton to try them out.

Was going to go for the bright green, but decided i don't have the power or driving skills to pull it off!!!

Don't want to draw too much attention to exactly how slow i'll be, especially after seeing what other cars are out on track with me. :eek:

I like your painting skills. Its a shame that you did not go for the green, but if you had, track competitors would of been green with envy :D
