I love those wheels, they make Rota type wheels, quite wide. I was just unsure as the company has no history. They look really nice.
Dont say you hate any orange on any car, have you seen Big Als engine bay, one of the best ive ever seen and contains lots of orange :lol:

aw cheers guys yeh ive test fitted them and theres plenty of rim/tyre to strut gap and the fronts only just poke out the arches,rears are gunna need either 10-15mm spacers,bearing in mind i have stretched tyres slightly! i too was unsure of the brand but the packaging they came in have trademarks of LENSO all over them im guessing its a sub brand of lenso. paint quality is pretty poor but relative of the price,still an awsome wheel!
greasing up coilovers as we speak

fitted the coilovers the other day and set a rough height il leave it a week then drop it accuratly to a nice and low stance,wheels have fitted perfectly and the car handles well,but i have developed a noise/vibration from inbetween or front of the footwells,i have found a split drivers side inner cv boot and no play in any driveshaft so it must be this (i hope)

Cheers mate! But I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea! Although I am a partial to a bit of orange!.... & green!! lol :lol:
ps i do love those wheels! I'm still deciding whether to change my white wheels to either matt black or shadow chrome (gunmetal grey) :grin:
wow that st bay is unreal!! yours looks good i think il just go with polished and some satin black on mine when i get the chance! ,thanks the wheels do stick out a bit i do love them bit small but the 16s were offset of 0 which is stupid. cant wait till i drop it to a lower more accurate height!

ive had a very bad day,on these 15s with 50 profile the fronts dont go low enough for me unless helper springs are removed which i have tried and is frankly dangerous.so im stuck with a hard choice,sell my axe wheels for say 300 with tyres and roll around on my mondeo 16s whilst searching for cosworth wheels or just stay the way it is with a 1 1/2 arch gap,also the rear passenger side is set higher than the drivers,but the passenger arch gap is a lot less that the drivers :S
