Default New aloys!!!!

Hi all,

I went to a mate of mine to get some new tyres fitted yesterday and what a bummer this turned in to.......
I ordered some Yokohama Parada`s all good, when he went to fit them he noticed 2 wheels buckled and one was cracked............
I ended up replacing the alloys and tyres, needless to say the wife wasnt happy. Just wondering what people think about my choice??

They look a bit weird to me. They're 17's that have multiple inner rings so the spokes look like 15" wheels.

And Yoko's in the winter wouldnt have been my choice but each to their own.

Everyone is intitled to their opinion so its cool

I agree, center caps stand out to much, might get them colour matched soon.

I agree with hamster they look really small because of the thickness of the rim nice wheels tho and get a carbon sticker for those centercaps
