I am thinking of changing the wheels on my Griff, and the SP12 option from ACT is one that I am seriously considering. If anyone has any experience of using these wheels I would be glad to hear your thoughts on them and whether it changes the driving experience.
If anyone has any other suggestions I would love to hear them, as it seems like a minefield of different options.
Cheers
Kev

Many thanks for all the info guys.
The Team Dynamics do look very similar, but I am really put off by the writing round the rim.
Many thanks for your kind offer QBee, I think they really suit the car I was worried that the 17/18 inch combination may be to big for the car, but it does look really nice. I was thinking of using 205's front as I have no power steering, and it is heavy enough at low speeds as it is. Does this wheel combination throw your speedo calibration out much?

Thanks for all the advice and helping me with my decision making process. SP12's are now on order with Tim, and hopefully they will be arriving in the next day or two ( would put smiley woohoo thing here if I knew how to do it!).
I will get some piccies up when I have it all fitted up.
Cheers Kev

Here are a few pics of my suspension overhaul earlier in the year.
This made a huge difference to the overall handling and feel of the car, I always thought it was good before, but much better afterwards, especially noticeable on bumpy, undulating and challenging roads. The foundations need to be right before spending the money on the shiny bits.
Wheels should be arrive today with a bit of luck.

New wheels and tyres fitted,I am well chuffed with these. The colour of the silver is perfect for what I want. Bit of a scary drive on four new tyres like being on ice for the first few miles!
Thanks for the guidance guys.

why does it always post twice from an iPad/iPhone?
Is there any way of stopping it
