What size tyres you got on the lenso's mate they the 16x7.5...looks like your running a little stretch on them and what size spacers you got on the rear im thinking about a set of the lenso bsx but black with mirror lip...

Didnt go for a huge stretch, only a slight one... I have 195/45/16 Yoko S Drives...

I'd take the lenso's (if they fit over brembos). They look mint!

always liked this car, wheels do it wonders!

i have a 195/40/16 on my 7.5s not soo much tyre failure is a problem, ive had them up to 145mph and they were ok but you can feel a BIG difference in cornering....

[Jamie P]

In what way better or worse...???

a little stretch is ok but ive been reading about it and the tyre failing if the stretch is on the more extreme side...

Possibly the difference of places and prices of the resprays? Whos to say!

In a slightly worse way, it understeers a little bit more than normal but nothing to major, lets just say i wouldnt want to do a trackday with them on but for road use there fine.

a mate of mine was running a 165/50/15 on a set of ronal turbos which are 7s, now that i would say was dangerous!

Just another random pic - Was actually rolling at about 60mph, but my friend used a high shutter speed as it was bright outside, so looks like i'm stationary!

Lol... Well, i weighed up the option of splits, but to keep the splits on all year round wouldnt be viable, damage etc etc, and i havent any "winter wheels" and cba with changing etc, so thought i'd go for the Lenso's to keep both sides happy.

But what did they cost all in? I reckon you could be running some fully sick wheels for about £600, maybe less if you DIY refurb!

My spits were:

purchase: £150 from evilbay
split: free, me
dishes painted or polished an kurbing removed: £50
centres and barrels painted: £140
cutsom adapters: E280 conceptwheels.be
Tyres: £180 for decent ones.

If you DIY refurb they come in on budget... Plus Im getting the adapters made by a fiends dad... Mates rates FTW!!!
