Kerniki your Chimaera looks V cool. Do you have the specs of the wheels and tyres you have fitted. What make and sizes etc. Both wheels and tyres.

Agreed, those are rather classy wheels, they suit the car well. What are they?

Thanks for the comments guys, the wheels are BK Racing items 16" & 17", suitable for a Saxo apparently, you'll need to use the hub mounted spacers to go with them (15mm I think), don't be afraid of these as they're hub mounted so full support is given. I have done three track days since they were fitted, with no problems. BK Racing are on the web, the only thing I would say is put a couple of extra coats of laquer on before fitting as there's is quite thin. Here's the latest picy with the brakes sat behind em.
