Hey guys,
after months of waiting I finally received my set of new rims and tyres. Originally, I wanted to purchase a set of GramLights Optimise but Rays needed 3-4 months to tell me that those rims are out of production. Then, I planned to get another Rays set and expected a discount for the long waiting period. No way, so I decided to buy something different.

Four weeks ago I ordered a set of 17"x7 Buddy Club P1 SF white wheels with Toyo T1R Proxes 205/40/17. The wheels arrived here after two weeks and I mounted them for testing purposes today. A+ to Buddy Club!

What do you guys think of it? I think the car looks pretty dope now. I expected it to be a big foot with those wheels but it turned out quite well. Unfortunately, I had to take those beauties off due to winter weather and rubbing issues. I tested the car with one person in the back and it rubbed in several corners. It seems as if there is a bit of work needed...

 

Man they really set that yellow off. I didn't think white looked that good on yellow, but now i'm having second thoughts +rep for you

 

looks a lot better. im running the 15" buddy clubs and lovin them 17's seem to fit the car better

 

wow! your car really looks good despite minimal mods.

 

Appearance is perfect. Go for performance!

 

Thanks for all the comments. Do you have any ideas how to improve performance? As written in the first post, I purchased the Spoon N1 exhaust but without header (it is not allowed here). Other than that I might be getting a set of smaller rims because those 205's are really taking away accelleration.

I also wanted to install a S/C kit or Turbo but the latter seems to be quite unreliable and the Kraftwerks Kit does not really fit. Another problem seems to be the AT...and on top of that it's expensive.
