New wheels, Thanks Mags!!
New wheels from Mags, well worth the wait, thanks for your patience!
Before, 15inch volks (recent aquirement, long story, will post later!)
And now.....
.... 18inch of fit
Well happy with the new look and the grip now is unreal!
Would recommend Mags for wheels anytime, comunication and service second to none.
Hope you like as much as me!

I've read that 17's work much better with classics, probably down to the tyre profile needed to make them fit - but Prodrive fitted 18s to the P1 so read in to that what you will

cheers chaps!
I got the side graphics from a friend who makes signs and stickers etc, I google translated Subaru Technica International in Japanese and the most common one I got was that, so went with it! Could say anything really for all I know!
As for the change from 17 to 18, I heard the horror stories too but I wanted them for the look, can't really tell a difference, if it is then it's minimal, and I am running on 35 profile! Grips a beaut but my last tyres (post 15inch volks) were pretty scetchy!
Only ran the 15s for about 2 weeks, far superior ride to either 17 or 18 but just look at em!!

.Car looks lovely mate, sounded absolutely amazing. I think you let it off when you actually saw me coming the other way. Mine is a sport however.

FMIC Next on list! Noticed very little difference if any to the performance when I raised bonnet. I have been told, true or not, it is meant to aid engine bay temps, but I prefer the way it looks, with or without benefits!

@ruislip, the package with yoko pradas will set you back £1,400 new, however I spoke to M444GY on here who had some second handers in that I got a VERY fair deal on.
p.s. @ lofty35 - they are Rotas mate
