Super sweet. Perfect colour choice

+1. Looking good wasabiz, perfect height on those springs as well.

Some HRE action for Adam, albeit the FF15 in tarmac:

Another HRE set FF15 from a Victorian Golf R beautiful in White

These is rightly a lot of love for the FF15 - they're such a stylish rim. It's just such a shame that the details are so often lost (at least in pictures anyway) in the Tarmac (black) finish. I'd be tempted to go with a darker gunmetal finish on a white R for that reason, although that certainly wouldn't go as well with the R's gloss black highlights. Happily it's not an issue I need to agonise over myself!

I heard Adam had matched his car to his bike..

There is SO MUCH wrong with that photo. (My bike is black for a start!)

BBS CH-R

BBS never disappoint. Great colour combo

+1. Definitely a great rim and colour combo. Love those CH-Rs (as Dutch knows well)... aaaalmost as much as I love those FF01s.

Have just swapped the wheels around, ET45 on the fronts and ET 35 on the rear. It's looking a little better now that it's sitting like that

I think in reality the FF15s look a lot better in tarmac than most pictures give them credit for, on a white R they would look the business definitely.. BUT.. we also know how good serge's graphite OZ ST LMs work so it's a draw IMO.

So it's bigger?

+1 on CH-Rs, +1 on FF01s. Mmm.

A nice wheel choice indeed.

These are a good looking wheel - in some respects I like this over Vossen CV3 - the flat finish on the end of each spoke where it joins the rim looks chiseled/tough. Either way the Mk7 can definitely wear five spokes well.

I figured you might - I assume that is going to be a very flush fit all round (or perhaps a little over). Certainly puts the wheels at the corner and looks the business.. provides another counter to those that argue the car has to have 19s.

I'm liking the old school ring over the garage there too.
