Wheels look great! How wide are they?
The front on pic really shows how much wider than standard it's going to be 8O

What exactly are you doing? Re-shelling the car in your avatar pic?

I don't think it's a Rieger kit as that kit has different front and back bumpers. Looks like a Ferrari Testerossa kit as corkie mentioned.

its not a rieger kit, it is the testarossa kit as mentioned above, but i am modifying the bumpers slightly. i am almost finished so will get pics up when bumper is complete.

as regards to the wheels, the fronts are 12.5 inches wide and the rears are 14 inches wide. they are a complete bitch to get tires for as they are 345/35/15s on the back and up front are 265/45/15s if anyone knows where i can get tires this size please let me know.

£1230 for tyres :eek: Strange having the valves on the inside of the rim - must make it difficult to inflate them I guess? :mad:
