Dosn't work out cheap 1k +vat +£40 delivery + £660 for F1s  :cry: :wink:
Sold Monzas for £800 so worked out to about 1k

Still cheaper than a set of BBS CH's in black... and better looking in my opinion.
I'm seriously considering a set of these on a Silver R!

Yes my mistake, i have seen your pics of CHs, i think the darker wheels must make it look lower than it is, cos mine is on standard springs and dosn't look as high as yours ?

May be the angle that I took the photo from, I have not noticed any difference in the ride which I like so have to give the springs careful thought.

Yes i havn't noticed any difference in the ride and quite happy with the height, if lowered it will be a firmer ride, leaving mine as is :wink:

Mags, you should run them at the same pressures as recommended for the standard tyres - 38psi if memory serves - but check the inside of the fuel flap.

Mac does it make a difference on pressures when they are a lower profile tyre on a 19"wheel ?
