Don't have clue what wheels these are but i thought ad put a pic up seeming there different. The car is lowered on coilovers on 17" Intra Cosmos (recently found out what they are thanks to Marc81)

Really like the look of those alloys on the silver fabia vRS. Any idea where you got them from and how much you paid roughly??

upgraded the wagon to 18" bbs lm reps with 215/35/18 tyres

also upgraded from an sdi comfort to a tdi elegance :-) (swapped all the pimped bits over ;-P )

[Ant-Vrs]

I was guna put it in the spotted section but I do about 300-400 miles a day starting from chesterfield to the peak then around south yorkshire then to west yorkshire.... Back to work in the peak then back home. I would just fill the spotted bit up!!!

[markbob917]

what colour are these? is the fog light grille surround still on with the tow strap attached?

[Kenny130pd]

The wheels are anthracite, the strap fits through the slot in the grill surround.

How did you find the handling and comfort levels with the Toyos?? I've just ordered some myself and have read mixed reviews on here about them.

[Tech1e]

I have had T1-Rs for years, very good tyre.

However my car doesn't really qualify for 'comfort' regardless of tyres.
