I don't like the GT86 but the bits you've done to yours transform it! It looks lovely well done.

That is really something! Makes such a difference getting rid of those halfords special wheels they come with.

I'm with Daniel on this, stock form i think they look s**t. However this is quite smart with what you've done - although the colour i'm not sure on!

I'd lose that GT86 badge on the rear too, why the hell did they make it so big!?

OOOOSHT! Love it. Wheels make a big difference to these bad boys! Make a big difference in the handling department?

Looks nice.
The wheels sound too wide though, surely they take away from the handling fun?

ARBs should help with keeping the handing good.

just give car more grip so you can give it some on twisties without having to hang on to its ar5e

I love the look of these but the wheels really let them down, so glad to see one on something decent. looks great mate. Whats the car like I really do fancy one?
 
  MY10 R35 GTR
Great fun. Get rid of the silly noise generator and put a decent intake kit and it give it a bit more noise.

Wasn't that the entire point of the GT86. Less grip = more fun?

Presumably with far more grip you'll not get it moving about so easily now.

Il echo the above, looks so much better now, the standard wheels are dreadful.

Was looking at these the other day, but couldn't get past the interior when I had a look in one.

personnally I think it was too far down the less grip route. It still moves about just needs be asked to do so

The mrs loves it that's the main thing
 
That looks awesome.

The stock wheels are dreadful, they look cheap.

I really like this, new wheels give it a far more aggressive look.

Exactly this. They normally look a bit "halfords" for me but yours looks fantastic.

You'd think Toyota would have their own engine cover though? Lazy buggers..

The Mrs has done some further mods this year.

Fitted some Crawford performace Billet Power Blocks which once the car has a had a remap should be a good 10hp jump in power. Crawford are claiming close to 19hp gain!

Also fitted has been a new rear spoiler, a shark fin aerial and a roof spoiler.

Alot better with the mods, both my wife and I agree.

Ok they were developed to have fun with, but the standard tyres are scary in the wet. No grip in any way.

Cars awesome now, shes actually talking about getting more power
