Do you think these will stand out on the Sport? No I'm not parting with the TH's;)

The are for Drag Strip / track day use only;)

I had a look at the them the other day, seemed cheap enough but not much tread on but alright for dragstrip runs. ;)

Spray them the same orange as on the Sport sticker IMO.

Can't go wrong with them, I've also got a set and I'm thinking about getting the centre hole welded in and removing the swedge where the centre cap fits so they look like there not supposed to have caps.

Rather than going to all that trouble, if you fitted a plastic cap in the centre and painted the centre boss to match with painted studs would look factory without the hassle;)

Might consider that myself, black would contrast welllol

Need to plan a return trip to York Dragway next year, and possibly Santa Pod (PVS:tard: maybe) after I've got her all set up again;)
