Haha I want them to turn up and see if they look like junk first, as it was a bit of a risky choice, especially colour wise biggrin

I will update in a week or 2 with some pics

Sorry for the dark picture but I have only just unboxed them. Tyres have now been ordered and the old wheels are being picked up tomorrow!

I suppose if you ask for 4 x 108 only, it is possible. Look nice I think.

To get an 8j rear in et35 they needed to be custom drilled. Unfortunately they could not offer this on the et25 fronts so I have had to go multistud in those. Hopefully it won't look too odd but we shall see hehe

I don't know if they sold blanks for custom drilling in 16" 7J for the front, and having multi-drilled wheels or spacers is a compromise either way really. I'm sure 95% of people wont notice and due to the offset sizing the wheels look different front to back anyways, so I am not worried smile
