The car must be pretty fast....,

since the wing appear so rear to the car, looking like it has been dragged or left behind... (I what I am talking about).

I think the wheel are ok. Sparco aren't they?

OK now the pictures are up I will ammend my first comments, The rims look OK, the white is not bad with the blue, however does the props department from "The Fast and The Furious" know that you stole their rear spoiler.
I hope that car is worked beyond belief and is fast because that would justify the down force generated by that rear wing.

Cheers

Gibbo

I don't mind the white rims, especially if the car is going to be tracked, etc. Gives it a race car look. Tim Tam was looking at white rims for a while - guess this answers his questions.

Otherwise, tend to agree with Gibbo about the rear spoiler. Bit too much for me. Hopefully, in six month's time the extra power will require it to do something besides add drag and attract rice comments.

Thanks for the input guys, Well for starters I use my cars, they get driven like they should, The rear wing is very noticable when you are doing 130+ through the windies on Gorge rd, and it is being built as a racecar don`t forget... It did a session out at Adelaide international raceway yesterday for a HOT 4`s DVD shoot, and it got a good thrashing trying to chase our FC driftcar i tell ya!!!! Front bar is like that due to the 35 series tyres i had on the previous rims, so it use to scrape bar absolutely everywhere, its fiberglass, my crashie will fix it!!!

So no need to worry about the rice factor here!!!

Oh and Taka, the rims are Advans, 8 1/2 front 9 1/2 rear, it will recieve some jap coil-overs soon...
