Yeah i reckon they suit the 3 doors just perfect! but the arches need a bit of work!!! the rears are 8 and a half inch wide and the front 7 and a half. i have 235 yokos on rear and 205 toyo proxes on the front. the front bumper needs to be pulled forward a bit as the fron wheels catch the splitter on full lock and i have to adjust the height on the coilovers a little i think as well,
Lincoln - they sure are!
i will try get some more pictures but i have trouble downsizing them to upload onto the forum!

Yep...... Awesome wheels. Suit the car and its period in time.
The RS500 is one of my ultimate cars and has a position right up there on my "must have" list LOL
BTW Are they 17's or 18's...... i assume 17's?

Cheers guys! its not a show car anymore but its still pretty tidy,  i was messing around with a spare dash because the one in the car is cracked and a mate of mine does carbon dipping... so we dipped the dash! i ended up taking it out as it was too shiny!!

I hate you. That's all I have to say. [8~2]
I must come around one of these days and see this car again, I will probably try and steal the keys from you. I WANT!

I made those top hats and brackets for 355 brakes TY.
Look so sweet mate - you HAVE to keep her now!!!!
Would like to see more photo's of the centrelock adaptor?
I assume his wheels were et20? I also think that 8.5in are actually 8 in it just depends on where you measure them. Maybe take some meat out of the adator to pull then into the guard?

The Bells are spot on Lincoln!!!
I will take some pics of the adaptors soon and post them up.... im not sure of the et on the rims but i could have them machined there seems to be plenty of meat behind the centre piece... Lincoln you would be able to advise whether i can have the adaptors machined more... not sure if i would weaken them???
i will put the measuring tape on the rims.

Yes mate pics and measurements.
A lot of UK people have machined the wheels - let me see your adaptors - did they some from UK aka same as Ryans old ones - on ebay.uk for a while?
