You've not put the caps on the wipers have you? Covers where they connect together.. looks loads better.

Looking good mate!

You can get allows cheap but u will struggle to get tyres cheap! If i was you i would only get 15s as tyres are cheaper, get 195/50/15s as they also cheaper, then lower 40/50 mil!

Selling my wheels but they might be a little to much for u! Rare Wheels!
