Lovely car with the perfect wheels, she looks great sitting on bottle tops. I put mine on some times to give the hartge's a rest and still think the car looks great.

Nice Touring.

Good luck in keeping both the missus and car purring.

+1 for the BBS 15"s.

I replaced my bottletops with 14" BBS - good but not good enough.
Refurbed 15s with Toyo Proxes have transformed my Touring, conventional I know but they look and feel so right.

At least you told the mrs straight, and your hands are on the right thing! And then you got peace and quiet for a day to get stuck in! (Might of been a dry job though - no nice cuppas throughout the day)

The touring is a bit of a steal at 575 notes pal, i would've chosen a really clean set of 15" bbs too but azev's are azev's i suppose! So still a good choice FTW. Good luck fixing the flat spot! Wings look the bullocks too!! 8)
I'll check with the manager
