Hi, I own an Ariel Atom, and I’ve had this crazy idea to kit it out with wheels/tyres like those on the legendary McLaren MP4/4! Is this even remotely possible? What’s the closest I could get to this look? It’s the white decals on the thick sidewalls that looks particularly epic! It’s probably a silly idea, but thought I’d ask anyway!

You can buy racing slicks. You just cant use them on the road.

Yeah, they’d need to be road legal.

Stencil and tyre paint would be the easiest.

Plenty of tyres have white written sidewalls. Not sure you'd want BFG A/Ts on your Atom though! biggrin

ETA looks like Goodyear still do slicks with white written sidewalls... Worth an ask.

Cheat and make your own on good road tyres.
