Are they Forgestars m8, 19" or 20" ?

Looking good and can see the car has definetely dropped more in the rear as well.

HRE FF01s. 20" on Vredestein Ultrac Vorti's as recommended by the German distributor I got the wheels from.

I was after MPSS but couldn't find a company that had both sizes in stock so went with the Vreds.

Bit disappointed also to find I'm only saving around 1lb on the rears and about 2lb on the fronts. Either the FF01 isn't one of HRE's lighter wheels or those are some heavy-ass tyres! :lol:

Need to order some of those RPI flaps now. ;)

They do seem heavy, think I am going to go with Forgestar F14 in gunmetal or graphite with a 275/35/20 up front and a 305/35/20 on the rear, should save 5-10lbs per wheel.

What tyre size you running and how are you finding the ride quality/comfort compared to the 19" PP wheels, any loss or gain in steering feel/feedback?

Off the top of my head I think the fronts are the same as standard and the rears are a smidge wider.

I've only driven it around 5 miles and had to take it easy as the tyres are struggling for grip BIG TIME as they're new. Slight increase in road noise but it does seem to like corners a bit more now.

But then he'd need to paint the wheels black to match. :D :lol:
true, think it needs something on the body (top side) just to finish it off, that's not to say it doesn't look amazing already!

I think so too.
What's the plans, my little creative head is whirling for you, trying to think of a stripe or something you could put on that compliments the black/grey parts on the front, the grey/gunmetal alloys and the martini livery, quickest win is just martini stripe over the middle :thumbsup:
