£220 is quite pricey but if its a decent job. What % tint are you thinking? I had 35% all round on my panama yellow volvo. Still think that looked great but touch and go now adays for getting hassle for them being too dark on the front.

I was really happy with mine and the job was perfect. What happened to the Compomotive wheels idea?!

Hello mate, they are very nice wheels, Im looking for some with the same style but I want 18", Im looking at the kei force 10's I had them on my old type-r.

Anyway with those wheels be very carfull as I dont think they will have all those fittments he is claiming, The KEI's are mutlifit the same BUT there is only 2 fitments, ie 4x100/108 for a set then another set would be 4x100/114.3 which would be the ones you want, Belni bella, (not sure thats the correct spelling for them) but anyway they do wheels like the force 10's, and again the only have 2 fitments per wheel, I neary fell into the trap until I phoned them and asked about the fitments. I could be wrong but Im quite sure most if not all multifit alloys only have 2 fitments per wheel.

cheers ian

Nice looking wheels but you are going to kerb them, they stick out loads from the tyre, its only a matter of time before you are posting an "any one know a good refurb place type of thread"

iv been on to th kato website and they do a 4x100/4x114 fitment so if he has these ones would they fit if he has the fitment?

iv been lucky with alloys as iv NEVER kerbed any iv had but iv prob cursed myself now!

I had KEI force 10s in 18" hyperblack and they looked great. Think they were 42 or 45 offset. The lacquer did peel off after a few years though and the centre caps had to be modded to fit.

Yes mate if he had a set of wheels with that pattern they will fit, but from looking at his ad, he is claming that the wheels he has got has all the fitments hes listing, well thats how it looks to me,

slightly off topic I guess but yorkshire R - I just wondered how come you are using a picture of my yellow series 2 T4 in your avtar? The pic you have is the original photo from when I bought it.
Just curious...I've been meaning to ask but can't log-in to my original username etc :doh:
