Default What wheels and tyres do you have....?

My car has 20" BBS alloys wit Dunlop Maxx 275/35/20. Limited to what type of tyres I can fit due to the Extra Load factor needed.

Default Current wheels ...

I am running the standard 18" Avus wheels, but they are being swapped for the later S8 wheels as soon as they arrive ...

Anyone interested in the 18's ... set of 5, will be refurbished first (if you want)

I have the standard Final Edition 20 inch S8 wheels. Had them powder coated last week in a slightly darker silver - I think it sets the blue body off well.
I have some pics and must get round to posting them.
