Saw a mk2 on 6R4 rims, took me ages to figure that out. Looked ace, same as the mk2 on Lancia Delta Intergrale wheels. Simple yet effective.

I'm not 100% on the OP wheel tbh but those rotiforms are wheel porn Chris :cool:

Rich, go for whatever you like. Len had the same comments about his gold wheels but I think they look alright (although those blue lenses look gash!). It's healthy for us not to all like the same thing.

Give me a shout about the original wheels, may do a deal with you on them.

I like those 3 spoke rims!  :cool:

Martz :cool:
