drivers in glasgow. don't even think about contacting them though. might be a good price i got, but...at first they gave me a price £100 cheaper then told me, they forgot to add the vat(ain't £100 vat on £1300!), went to pick them up in tyhe afternoon after they told me they would be ready in morning, it was the wrong tyre size on the wheels and had to get them to change them over(45 minutes waiting about), didn't have any locking wheel nuts for me(had the cheek to ask if i wanted to buy some, when the originally said they'd throw them in with the wheels), then when i went to put the wheels on the car, the plastic shim the sit's inside the wheel and aroud the centre of the hub, was the right size for the wheel, but not for the hub! part from that everything was hunky-dory!

well worth it all though.

That looks fantastic. Love the wheels. I think you may have made my mind up to buy the H&R Springs. Just need somewhere to fit them.

That looks rock hard did it slow it down at all?

Wish I could say the same about my 18" Diablos. Bit like driving with an elephant on the roof.

looks good m8, ive got an rb5 too and recently fitted a set of mille miglia ev-s alloys, only 17"s but i had a real nightmare finding wheels to fit coz of the 4 pot brakes, theres only about 1mm clearance!
ive also fitted clear indicators and your right that it looks a bit bland all clear so ive had the rb5 badges and grill badge redone in blue to give it a hint of colour
