How about you buy that Rotorora 6POT brakes which come in the EXACT color blue to match your lugs . I'm sure D2 can give you a good deal, and if you have the 350, you can sell your upgraded brakes to a 250 owner

Very nice rims. I assume you're running the OEM tires or did you upgrade ?

Also, how much do your rims weigh ? TIA.

Thanks. Maybe I need to get thinner tires later on to make it look better.

That's an idea I haven't thought about. I will think about that. Thank you for the suggestion.

Thank you. Yes, I am running OEM tires. They look ok for the front butthe rear tire looks a little thick which make the wheel looks a bit small.

I think they weigh about 25kg, thats what the sales guy told me.

I'm starting to hate the color blue.. Everyone wants blue on their cars.. Blue HID's, Blue interior lights, Blue This Blue That.. I LOVE BLUE!!! sometimes blue just dont fit in.. Silver Rims, Silver Car, Go with the flow.. Silver/Chrome lugnuts.. You want your rims to stand out not your lug nuts ...
