Awesome stuff, the same look as the work emotions though a guess a lot cheaper than work wheels, love the rear wheel it seems to be dished in a lot more, just needs lowering a little at the back. I think there will be quite a few more sags popping up with these on now someone has tried it, well done you sir 
Hopefully answering all the points.
Yes it is on standard dampers and springs, for some reason the pics make it seem to sit higher than it does.
They are pretty much a copy of the works CR Kais that Act had but when I enquired about a set of those I was informed they would be in excess of £2000 and that was to rich for me.
Offsets are 35 all round with 8.5 inch front and 9.5 inch rear not quite factory offsets but there arent any issues with rubbing and they have tjhe advantage of being a lot lighter than the spiders. They were £775 from a company called Toxic Rides in Hertford.If you go on to www.rarerims.co.uk they have a facility where you can upload a photo of your car and then put the various Rota wheels on to it to get an idea of how they look
I wasnt 100% convinced about the colour when I ordered them,they dont do a silver and their gunmetal was more of a flat black but in the flesh they work really well and when I get bored I will get them refurbed in shadow chrome to change the look of the car again.
The cans are Blueflame and were about £500 they are a silenced can but the noise level is being sorted with a mod next month.
I know lots of people dont like different wheels on the T cars but it always amazed me that TVR never offered any alternatives to the spiders considering the ability to spec a highly individual car in all other respects.

Just fitted some Rota Torque Drifts to the Sag, I think they suit it but always interesting to get other peoples views.
Kevin,

I noticed on your pics that you have the tri-coloured titanium end cans on your Sag. I've been considering these for mine. I've spoken with Blue Flame who were contracted by TVR to make the O.E. ones but (alledgedly) didn't get paid and stopped delivering them. Blue Flame can still make these up and luckily they are the bigger bore cans, which fill out the diffuser much more attractively. My only concern is that the chrome end cap is rivetted on and the joint is only silicon sealed (not welded). I worry that eventually muck and stuff will get between the joint and begin to corrode. How long have you had yours and are you happy with them? They're not cheap at circa £550 plus VAT, so I wanna be sure they are worth the investment. Cheers.
Is there many people that make titanium cans? I thought the ones on mine maybe blueflame. The blue moves up the can when I go out for a drive then when it cools slowly and moves back down to the end behind the diffuser. They seem more Oval than above and are not as open at the end. (smaller pipe inside)
Hi Zippee
Any excuse to put a couple of pics not great quality but hopefully good enough
The Blueflame cans are now 3 to 4 years old and are in very good condition, whilst they have been protected from the worst of the elements on the Sag for the 5000 miles on that they spent 20000 miles on the Tuscan beforehand. They are a much more oval shape than the photos earlier suggest must be the angle they were taken at and they are not open ends but have a standard circular outlet pipe in thr centre.
YR Runner on the basis of my experience with them whilst they are expensive they look like they will last for many years to come and definately dont look any the worse for wear now.
Sorry pics not coming across with the words will try to post again

I may be interested but need to check the finances, how much are you looking for and are they with or without tyres? If with what rubber and how much tread? If without are they the same size as the spiders?
