They look like they have massive sidewalls in comparison to your current tyre/wheel combo?

Strange... I literally photoshopped them on top of the current wheels to get the size right

it must be how bling they are reflecting light and creating an optical illusion

Unless you mean the stock photo of the wheel? That's an actual Hummer wheel / tyre (stolen from google images just to show what style they are) the replicas I'm looking at getting are much smaller and without tyres

Maybe hold off on the other tweaks and invest in some armour plate if you're going to these places?

Boso? Hmm. Interesting.
I don't plan on ever going anywhere remotely like that again!

And yeah basically this, but a LOT smaller and more subtle!

I wondered where my elbow crutches went?

I meant the stock photo, yep. I thought they were what you'd actually bought. That's a relief then

that would look so drokking strange! But possibly cool...?

I just stole the image off google because I didn't have any photos of the actual wheels handy. They'll be going on the tyres that were on the black steelies, actually works out cheaper to buy these wheels and put the tyres on than to buy 4 new tyres when they're needed for the Enkeis that are currently on it.

Not a massive fan of the H2 reps really..
Personally I love the wheels that are it at the moment. Give it a really nice clean OEM+ look.

I'm not a massive fan of the H2 reps either

but they mean I can use the tyres off the EOW again and cheaper than buying new tyres for the Enkeis so they're kind of a 'they'll do for now' thing

Ideally I want the Fatlace F/Zero1 wheels by AME... BUT that's a way off and tyres are needed soon.

Might get there yet and the offset may be way out, or they might be in bum droppings condition (says they're new but?)

Photo of the F/Zero1....

*edit to add, photo of actual wheels I'm going to look at...

Ok. Decided drokk it. Not getting those reps. Just going to get some Whistlers with the money from selling the EOW. They're 15x8 et20 so should be perfect fit (EOW were 15x8 et0) then maybe hold out for something retro cool and correct size/pcd to pop up in a year or so.

Also... It's my birthday and Bruce got me the 'mascot' I wanted for the bB

For anyone who doesn't get the relevance... People refer the bBs as 'toasters' ... Nyan cat is a cat with pop tarts for a body. Pop tarts go in toasters... Plus they're both square. Yes, I know. I am so ridiculously cool right
