Got the RS wheels back from the powdercoaters yesterday and popped down to Jefferies Tyres to have a full set of brand new Yokohama Parada Spec 2's fitted.
Got home and got them fitted.
*please note that the bonnet is open in the pictures as my dad was going to refill the gearbox*
I am going to be getting some 10mm spacers for the rears so they sit better on the rear. But need to get it dropped at the back to match all round.
Let me know what you think.

Vortex or nimrods would suit it better.
But it's not my car.

Still due red lips for wheels, custom gel centres with red xsi text and ive got the red bolt in valves on the wheels. Black and silvers abit boring and too over done so thought i might aswell spice it up abit.

Ironic how 'the only set in the country' make them look like vortex clones.
Vortex - often copied, never bettered

Felix. -
Compomotive made 15 set of these wheels which was only 1 run. 13 of them were sent to Europe and sold and 2 sets were bought in the UK. One set by the chap I bought them off who works at Comp and another by a chap who used them on a 106 Dimma Show Car which is no longer in existence due to a burnout.
These wheels are now over 5 years old and when I search for them on Google I only ever find 8 results so super rare is the word I think were looking for.
Wheels are worth £900 + vat new without tyres.
