Joy of the Internet - lots of people with lots of opinions about other people's stuff and little sensitivity except when a comment is directed at them or their stuff.

Congrats on your car and your new wheels Ben.

What size and offset?

Hear hear. Congrats on the car from me too.

As well as size and offset what size tyres you got on? They look pretty low profile from what I can see.

Looking at the wheels in the catalogue i never would have picked them for this car, but i actually don't mind them.

Congrats on finding a set you like, certainly different to the dozens of 86's rolling on Work Ultimates and O.Z Ultraleggeras

How long have you had your car?

Honestly, they look awkward. I don't like them...

But who cares, I'm just a dude behind a keyboard :P

I just stated my honest opinion, no need to get all smart about it. A set of rota wheels would have suited the car more.

I am sure Ben couldn't care less what I say because he likes it.

Reason why I said they don't suit is due to size and weight as this will definitely compromise the fun factor.

Although I'm a massive hater of the Tempe style wheels, if I was somebody that had little understanding about cars, these would suit the style and age well.

Thumbs up bro.
