Better or worse than...

Might be an idea to post up some before pics for those who havent seen it!

I think this used to have Arospeed's didnt it? If so then I prefer these, they look awesome, and look HUGE, even bigger than the Arospeeds did, are they TSW Pace?

Cheers,
Grant

Well both look really nice...

But prefer the Pace cause they look HUGE, it looks like a mad Photoshop, and thats a good thing!!

Out of interest, where did you get your induction scoop??

Cheers,
Grant

I think I prefer the old ones mate !! Sorry !! They'd look awesome with bigger brakes especially. A nice set of monster AP'S would look the nuts !
Don't get me wrong, I like the new ones too, but I prefer the less spokes look (saying that, I've still got the standard 10 spoke P1 wheels n mine !!).
Either way, it's looking good bud !

You have been busy since the last time I saw you, looks great to me, like the wee air intake. Dont get carried away with all the mods and forget to fuel it up though

I like the new ones but I also liked the old ones on the RB5, dont think that colour wheels would go with anything other than the steel blue (the old ones)

The new ones look good but prefer the old ones just cos they'd show off the brakes more

I prefer the aerospeeds although the new rims are nice too but it doesn't matter what people prefer as long as you like them.
