Thanks to Phil for his advice during my deliberations; last week I drove down to Projex near Bristol to have them fitted

Straight fit with no spacers or tuner bolts etc. Now stop it, pennies staying in pockets for now
thats interesting I thought the rugers used tuner bolts like my vertini magic so its just normal bolts ,did you need slightly longer ones or just reused the ones you had :thumb:

Agree, similar look, but I specifically wanted the more concave or dished-face look.

I wanted to have black bolts and Projex supplied them FOC; can't comment on their length, but imagine standard in that regard. Projex really are a top end outfit, very impressed by them, so thanks for your recommendation.

Hi mark, the wheels look fantastic mate :thumb:
I know what you mean by photos not doing it justice. We're all the same :grin: but, it would look so much better lowered and spacered. Or have you got spacers already?
Done my C2S with H&R and looked more aggressive and right.
The roads around by me are littered with them dam humps but the car is ok if I take my time.
Speed yellow looks so good.
