Wheels & Tyres

Much better, I can't wait to see them on the MG.

Thanks - I’ve spent way to much time finding some that I liked . I actually wanted the FFR1's, but they are being discontinued and I wanted the Full Brushed Carbon Titanium finish, so went for the FFR2's in 8.5 (I wanted 9, but they were also out of stock) in the front and 10,5 in the rear.

I'm off on vacation soon, so it will be another two-three weeks before they are installed .

@onkeldunkel Indeed very nice wheels, and similar idea. What width and offset did you choose, and tyre sizes?

Thanks a lot! I wanted these specs (but they were out-of-stock):

9x20" ET32
10.5x20" ET30

So I ordered (and the concavity - that I like - is the same on this brand, independent of the offset):

8.5x20" ET42
10.5x20" ET42

So I will have to run spacers front and rear (20mm front and approx 12mm rear). On the positive side, the OEM wheels will also move closer to the edge of the fenders (during winter)

What I fell for is the Full Brushed Carbon Titanium finish. I've had black wheels before and they just "disappear" and are basically invisible in photos . And I have a silver GT, so silver wheels is a bit to much silver . This finish is really nice: IW Automotive

Oh and I will put the OEM tires on the new wheels and winter tires on the OEM wheels
