T2 MSW Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 I like the Black look my BK's only just clear the calipers on the inner rim and rear of the spokes. The've never touched when cornering, braking or any other time when driving. But when i change the wheels (which feels like before everytime i go out in the car) i've knocked the caliper I didn't get any spigot rings when i received my Rota's but a quick phone call and some came by post the next day and they were free A problem i have is the clearance around the wheels nuts, i have to use and thin wall extended socket and i've still managed to mark the wheels Here's a picture of mine in Black http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee70/GazBram/HPIM0130.jpg Yeah discovered the lack of clearance issue round the bolts myself. Have asked apul to order the ultralite lug style nuts so I have an adapter that fits inside them. Just hope he did not order the regular ones before I changed my mind Are they 17's on the rear fo yours Gaz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
