Awesome wheels, but the same as these:

They only look great from one side! If the manufacturers had only mirrored the design they'd (both) be fapping fantastic.

Turbo rims are awesome.

MK, i looked in to the price of getting some made so they where all the correct way around... It wasn't cheap.

I bet it wasn't! But for manufacturers they'd be looking at maybe 1.5 times the cost of making them all the same. I was actually pretty disappointed when my mate got his porsche ones and when I saw them he'd 'put them on the wrong way round' would have thought porsche would have made the effort tbh!

Are they different on the other side like ? Can't say it's a thing I've noticed

Nah they're the same, which is the problem, they look like they're rotating backwards when they sit still, if that kinda makes sense.

Interesting point there, never noticed that before, and tis true they look much nicer when they point back as shown.

That Fabia looks mint with them Porsche rims.

Great wheels dude they look spot on when on the Nova :thumb:
