I know that changing from Imilas to Estorils is quite a subtle mod but I've just done it on my Chim.

Personally I don't think big wheels suit the Chimaera and as I don't track it, the 15’s and 16’s offer enough grip for the road. I'm sure when I want to Supercharge/Turbocharge the car, I'll think differently but that's quite a way down the wishlist at the moment.

Next job, clean the Imolas and get them on the classifieds.

I can't be the only person who prefers Imolas.

I think the Estorils kinda make it look a little dated myself.

I can appriciate having cool factory optional extras though!

I prefer Imolas on the Chimaera, and Estorils on the Griff.

my chim came with estorils from the factory, I never liked them and swapped for speedline 2120's in 17" I wanted rl7's as per the cerb but raceline were having issues back then.

the compos are a good wheel but heavy and strong, I have a set on the tuscan racer. the 2120's are much lighter than both the estorils and definitely the compos..
