For £400 I would have gone with alloys, it will drive a lot better.

I wanted custom painted steels unique alloys are ok but slight pot hole with cheap alloy and its scrap.

4 tyres for £130 - they must be the cheapest possible Chinese ditch grabbers!

It always amazes me that folks spend so much on their cars and then compromise everything by putting crap tyres on.

I have to agree with the guy who said those wheels won't clear the front calipers.

I would also have fitted alloys at that price.

Toyo Proxes are good tyres - but £130 for 4? Not unless they are nicked :)
