Hi folks, looking at wheel options for G40's, besides BBS and steels what other rims are people running? really looking for something different. Could you post up your pics of your G40's rims, cheers
Ben ;)

my compomotive mo's:

not sure if you can really make them out but the 14" 7-spoke Ronals I keep my semi-slicks on:

Comp. MO's are the bollocks. One of only a few aftermarket alloy wheels I like. They look superb on Paul's G40. 8) 8)

I'd love a set of MOs. Awesome looking wheels :)
I've had a few sets on mine, including 14in BBS RAs which I've left off the list.
Adikt Speed 15x6.5 (sold these in December!)
(http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q290/AlexGrantUK/06-01-02.jpg)
Everyone says 15s are too big but I reckon it depends on the wheel. Always liked mine on 15s.

Had these Revolution RFX 14x7 and 14x7.5 for less than 48 hours, got them cheap but couldn't afford arch work so had to sell them. I've already got rolled rear arches, and these still rubbed. The car's been built to be driven hard, so these would've ruined it really.

Speedline 14x6 - still on these, hand refurbished in my garage. A bit shit up close but they suit it. Boring though.

Should be on new rims before the summer. :)

15" oz superleggera painted with body colour lips and black centers! what do you think?
-
Another vote for MO's from me. I've wanted a set since I was about 19 when I had an AX GT.

Ooh, always wondered what white wheels would look like on mine, that's quite tidy!
-
My missus (and Pete) think they look chavvy but I dont so they are staying white! Although I could just have blinkers on because I've wanted them in white for so many years. Although saying that I think they suit the grey Alex, thought you'd have something to say. ;)

Also, remember Eeekie's Alley Cats?
-
I don't remember Steve ever having Turbos, but i do remember Eekie's Alleycats. Though not actually fitted to his car.
