Cheers Stan, if i don't like them would be happy to give you first refusal. I have a feeling that i may become smitten though. It also would be nice to have winter/summer rims. |

Ok so my friend is coming over at 6pm to give me a hand chucking the new rims on, if there is any light when we are finished i will put some pictures up if not i will post in the morning. I cannot believe how heavy 21's are with tyres on............ turns out heavy |

Managed to get the wheels on last night, so here are the before and after photos. I really like them and think they compliment the colour and tints.

Proxy's are great rubber imo used them quite a bit on my subaru's. I was worried about the ride quality etc when going for bigger rims but have so far found no discernible difference. |

great news. I was worried too but the Proxys are supposed to be good for comfort and noise...so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. |

Thanks for the comments guy's i certainly like them. Just so no thinks they are moody, they have come directly from my cousins 2014 TDV8 and were sort of gifted to me. I gave him the £500 so it would not be awkward accepting them.
