Sorry but I dont like them at all.  I think you should give them to me and I will put them on my car to save you any embarassment :signLOL:

On a serious note they look awesome :happy2:

Very nice, note to self, dig out the grey Turinis currently collecting dust in the garage and get them on the car.

Looking forward to some lighter rims.

Tell her what's she waiting for and get her hand in her purse and pay for the fitting - that's what a modern woman would want to do surely?

i never realised that they are that light. i was gonna tell you to keep the Monzas because they look spot on, but you'll get a noticable increase in performance losing 3 kg a corner rotational mass :driver:

In a similar position to you. Got some Monza II's arriving tomorrow from Big Al. Haven't said anything but I know she will notice them when she goes in the garage, lol. So need to come up with a good excuse.
