Not my favorite wheels but they still look pretty damn nice. The front brakes look pretty serious...

Nice car, Cossie. Details please. Wheel size, offset, tire sizes, what AP brake package from where?, etc. etc.

Ntech supplied the rotor hats and caliper brackets.
The 4 pot calipers and disc rotors are oem AP.
Cut my own lines from local race shop, running on Hawk Blues.

beautiful. I've always thought that those f1 style single lug hub/rims looked cool.

Looks great Cossie. My only suggestion is to go for a canyon drive and warm up those brakes

Sorry, can't do it. Work's been hellish lately. Always is near a quarter-end...

I had a lot of fun last time. Probably the most I've enjoyed myself at a track day, ever. My instructor showed me a double-apex for the Andretti hairpin that was a blast to try. It feels like it takes half the time to get around (compared to the classic line), and that's with my hack driving skills

They look really nice in my opinion, the breaks really set it off. Im a big fan of Avan wheels. One question though. What company did you go through to get them?
