BTW. If anyone interested to buy the wheels with or without tires let me know. Michelin or Bridgestone.

I've always been a fan of the V12 wheels, particularly with the polished face. Black looks good though on your car.

The V8 wheels look too busy in black and a bit cartwheelish and blocky if you understand what I mean. Silver were OK, but I don't think black has improved them. Generally I've noticed a thinner spoke suits black better.

Just noticed the front splitter - the grey is a nice complement to the red, very sharp!

I see you offered your V12 wheels for sale yesterday. Did you make a decision then have another think about it! Wheels are a tough call... there's so many nice designs around.

Yes, it's tough call. one day i want to keep the v12, next day I come back to V8 look. Also been looking to something different too.I can't make up my mind. I like the curvy spokes of the V12 wheels, but also like the aggressive look of the V8 wheels. Maybe if I find something that has both, I'll sell both sets.
For time being, if I sell one of the sets, then it's easy. stick to the one is on the car

I say V8 wheels. I've honestly never been a fan of the original V12V wheels.

I prefer the V12, but what matters is what you prefer not us. BTW my V8 wheels don't look like that.
