Dumped the Fabia RS for this....

The DSG was pissing me off and I needed to go back to a manual. So, I bought this just before Christmas:



This is so much fun. The Fabia has/had a little better get up and go, but this thing handles so much better.

The first mods will be to lower it and put some 18" Enkeis. I am thinking either of these:

Awesome car. i love the 86's.
Have fun with it and don't forget to post pictures with the new wheels

Finally got the wheels. I went for some ROH Evo-R's. The front wheel looks funny as it it pointing slightly to left. The red is a little more shiny that I was expecting, I though it would be a matte red rather than like an anodised red. I still like 'em

Wheels look great but what is ROH? Was happy you were considering Enkeis but then you bought a copy brand ?

[Dragawn]

Looks good on the GT86 though, what width are the rims/tyres?

[Jakgoe]

ROH is an Australian aftermarket rim manufacturer, possibly it was more available to Sincalp at the time.

Yeah I decided to go with the ROH's as it was easier. The dipsticks around here we're charging too much for Enkei Raijins, the price in Sydney was good but the freight was a little high. The ROH's were a good alternative, plus they're made in Australia and they've been making rims since the 40's! So, I'm v.happy with this choice. I would actually call them a copy of a BBS wheel but the design has been around for a while. I had an similar Advanti designed wheel on my mazda3 too. So, who copied whom?



I also got them from friend's tyre shop out of town, he said he could get the enkeis for me but he couldn't match the Sydney price. He gave me a good price on the whole package but I can't tell you how much.

They are 18x8 pcd 5-100 offset 40
Tyres are Pirelli P1's 225-40-18
