Thumbs up

Fergus,

Don't have any pics unfortunately, but I have the Athracite MiMs on a Silver MY00 and they look pretty darn good, especially shod with S02 215-40-17's.

Maybe Andy Tang could help you out with a picture as these used to be on his.

you may want to read the P1 wheels topic. it looks promising, and personally i think they are the best wheels you can fit on a scooby, princess has em on her silver car and they look fantastic!

Bear in mind that the wheels I had were a light graphite (RB5 colour - bluey silver) They looked good on a silver car though!! Not a very good piccies (coated in brake dust and in a dire need of a clean), but here goes:



That said I personally prefer the P1 wheels!!! That's why Dazzler has my old wheels!!



Hope this helps
Andy

PS - Dazzler, how are you getting on with the wheels???

Not sure about the colour of the P1 wheel, seems very dark, althought it might be the photo (Andy). The Superleggara is lighter in colour and weight and at the moment is just as exclusive as the P1 wheel.

Andy B,

The photo was taken on wet and cloudy afternoon after I washed the car!

They're not normally that dark, but the lighting conditions didn't do them any justice!!

This picture shows the wheel in a better light (although not the car or the driver!!)



Hope this helps

Andy,

Good picture, but I can feel the pain from here. Wheels look much better shame about location.

PS when do you get it back ?

I should get it back by this weekend, all repaired....

And an STI front spoiler, Prodrive suspension and some SO2's instead of the PZeros!
