Thanks Daniel. I know it's not necessarily a popular choice of wheel to choose from, but I like the understated appearance. Looks semi stealth and doesn't attract too much attention, but at the same time, it's different from stock, and different from the same style of wheel I have seen on others cars.

From one cyclist to another, nice bike. Wheels aren't bad either...

haha, Thanks Gene. Good to know there is another cyclist on this forum. Again, I like these wheels. Simple yes, but suits where I want to head with this car.

Not too bloody shabby, Shav.

How are you finding the tyre profile? The Bang and crash is getting to me but I have bilsteins with stock sways.

Thanks mate. I have added 1 picture to the wheels thread. I could add more on request but didnt want to spam up the thread with my car. haha

The profile funny enough is actually decent. looks a tad beefier than the previous Falkens and they feel comfier on the road in comparison too. Some of the bump and jarring has been ever so slightly subdued now. Overall, I am impressed with these tyres. Being asymmetrical too will mean cross rotation and longer life span especially having the same tyre on the spare wheel in the boot. The grip is better I can tell. I had the aligner add -0.5 negative camber to the front and 1mm of toe in for better turn in on corners. I just need to adjust the rear adjustable sway to be stiffer and I think the setup will be golden.
