      What's the ET on those, any spacers ?

      Ah testing my brain, they are S60R wheels, et might be 38?? Can't remember off the top of my head, 5mm spacers, can fit without but just too close for my liking so I prefer the 5mm safety gap

          Well they won't rub ?

            I should mention I only run the spacers because of the Porsche brakes

                      It was one of the reasons I bought the car, I'd like another set for the 960 but they aren't easy to find.

                        @rado if your interested in Pegasus wheels like @Jamest5r_ I can make you a set

                        I just can't tell the difference, they’re just like the real one's . Can you whip up some of those special one spoke rims as well ?

                          Probably stronger than the originals ?

                            I was working at this guy's house today and he's got a very nice RS focus , point being he's got Michelin pilot sport 4s , nice looking tyre . At last I've actually seen them in the flesh. As said before always gone Bridgestone but yeah those Michelin look good

                                      Price and availability is the thing though. I think Goodyear F1 Directionale5 are good too. Conti sport as well.

                                              Getting the size you need will be the issue so it cuts the choices.....

                                              I found buying used of gumtree or marketplace gave me the cheap way to see what was good , funnily enough , a Chinese brand Ovation gave me massive fun in the metallic burgundy rocket V70T auto that was epic torque monster!

                                              Tried them on the V60 , bought new cheaply 265/40/18 and they were good , the wheels were not!
