The weight of the front BBS w/ Goodyear are heavier by 4.5 lbs per wheel, the rear w/ BBS & Goodyears they weight 58 lbs while the Volks w/ Hoosier are only 52 lbs. The color is anodized bronze and are forged same as the BBS. This time w/ the volks, the wheel are now perfectly align to edges of fender or track on the front & rear widen a bit.

I have changed your listing from spectator to owner.

I have read about a group of super car owners in the Phillipines, are you a member, can you post event pictures?

I honestly did not think that anything else but the BBS would look good on Red, but these changed my mind. :thumbsup:thumbsup

Can you post or pm some hi-res pictures and what are the decals on the side?

These Volk Racing wheels are sweeeet... Light and strong, I was looking at these exact wheels for another car but now wonder how these would look on a Heritage. Can someone Photochop these bronze wheels on a Heritage please? BTW I ran Volk Racing CE28's on my Lotus and the fronts only weigh 9.5 pounds....

Hi Bruce, I think gun metal or white would be a better choice for your Heritage.

Hi Bony, we have a few groups of enthusiast here. We have a small group of about 15. But consist of very good friends. Sorry but couldn't upload any more new pics cause I think my quota is full. Thanks!
