Yeah i've driven past there a few times, I may pop down to have a look, I think i'm liking the Borbet BS, but dont think they'd be Brembo friendly.

The Team Dynamic's pro race look nice too.

I've been looking at imperial blue cars, and I'm liking the dark wheels alittle bit more now.

Although, I have one response that I'm waiting for from Rondell, trying to source some 122's, which are the best wheels ever. !

bbs lm's are the daddy

however they are £1800 a set!
the replicas are pretty nice for the price but you dont get the same staggered look, plus the centre caps are different sizes so you cant have genuine bbs caps and the fake ones look ****

cheers dude

i bought them off ebay when they were £600 a set 17x7.5 et 35 but you can get them for about £400 a set now direct from lmreps website but theyre et38 iirc

needs to sit lower at the back but the assistor springs that come with vmaxx are the wrong compression and dont depress fully = bouncy as fek, taking it to AMD 2moro, theyre going to take the assistors out i think but im not sure how i feel about that, surely they should be there for a reason!

I'm liking those LM's more, now, never really fancied them before.

Do you think that Brembo's would fit behind them?

Just found them for £400 on that website, but been reading about a 10 week delivary time.

Will try and photoshop some on.

might be easier to photoshop my car blue? seen that blue car on here thats on airbags loads of different colours!

Grr no photoshop on this laptop!

I cant change colours very well, I'm colour blind so it never works out that well.
Easier to swap wheels, which i'll steal of this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v480/nogutsnoglory/cupra/IMG_0792.jpg

Will have to do it tomorrow in work.


As for Plasma's yeah i know feckin loads about them. Is the voucher store specific, ie comet / currys, or is it a £900 cheque?

I've got a 42" Samsung 720i, and i'm looking to hopefully get a 50" Full 1080p HD, I dont have Sky HD, and my PS3 will be on my 42" in the games room, but i just want a big(ger) TV, but paing the extra for Full HD will future proof it for you, thats why i wanna pay the extra for Full HD.

Have a look on AVforums.co.uk for some idea's.

I did have a load of links, but lost them when i was looking at some lazy boy chairs! LOL.
