Here's another sweet picture of them! Does anyone know if you can fit 5 stud wheels? And how to do it...

That's odd usually the sales guys try to scrounge every last bit of money out of you! They would normally try and convince you that a fitted freezer and champagne holder would be useful, not to mention every other accesory possible...! :lol:

I think I prefer after market rims, 15s or 17s, 360s with 17s on handle alot better.

There is a 3 door grey 360 GL with the 2.3 Turbo conversion riding on 17inch 5 spoke alloys which look very similar to the T5R alloys:-

If i'm correct 5lab, duvel has those wheels too, not to mention me, therefore 'they love our wheels'!

Of course, I have 7 center caps but not in good condition... That's why I have bought new caps! I want perfect wheels :P

Here is a picture I made now with my webcam: my new center caps, shining... :P It 's VERY rare to find and expensive. I have to find a solution to paste them to the wheels until the end of time. Cause I know the frustration when one cap is missing during years...

Oh don't worry, it would be a symbolic price (free maybe) or exchange with something :wink:
