Wheels finally fitted! - Desmonds


Thanks for all the nice comments :nice:

As for your questions/suggestions;

Blox LCAs - I only read that the bushes are not that good after I bought them:angry:, but as 'eternal blue' said, I'll just have to uprate them when they crack.

Wheels & Tyres - The tyres are Yokohama Parada 205/40 R16. Its a very good tyre (for Maltese roads) as its soft but still has a stiffer sidewall than the Toyo Proxes. Its also better than the Toyo's in the dry, however one has to be rather careful when driving in the wet (for me this is not a problem as the car is mainly used on dry weekends).

The wheels are really a pain to keep clean as said before, but I wouldn't have them in any other colour :p. I agree that 15s are more 'performance-oriented', but I much prefer the look of the 16s and the overall effect they have on the look of the car. The overall diameter has been left the same as 195/50 R15 too.
Btw, these are still ridiculously lightweight :)

Thanks again for your time :nice:
