    Great shots Troy. They do look quite good, especially with the aggressive rotors behind them.

    Got another set of wheels coming too

    The Porsche ones will be daily/show and im getting another set for street/mountain runs/track.
    I have ordered some Hankook Ventus RS-3's 215/45/17. Cant justify spending $3000 on dedicated lightweight wheels and proper semis for the track which i might use twice a year, so its good to have a fairly sticky set which can be run on the street

    LM's are sitting here for a while till i can make the fronts wider which requires $$$$

    Troy so much time and effort in your car mate, I don't blame you for not wanting to push the limits. But I guess that's a major hurdle you have to consider if you're going down the sprint route. With how cheap Polo's are now you could have a show and a track option God knows you've got enough wheels for 5 Polo's dude

    Running these as a daily for a while, hopefully they will be on soon !!!

    .

    Wanted Porsche wheels for a while, have had adapters sitting here for close to 1 year
    I dont like the normal twists, they dont look agressive enough. These are Boxster S wheels 17X7 and 17X8.5
