went on the north west meet with mike and ian today. gave the corsa a nice run out, didn't hammer it but can completely feel the difference those rose jointed tie bars and bottom arms make. really really good products those. handles much much better.








some of the worst pictures ever to be seen in life those lol

borrowed that picture off mike. great drive out really need to go and tackle it again when its nicer weather seeing as its only about 30 miles from where i live.

i can possibly borrow a go pro off a mate but finding such luxurious prestige cars around here just isn't a frequent event.

in my hunt to find a new set of wheels I'm quite liking these compomotives at the moment.

You need to go to where Ben G lives TBH.
Those rims look decent, do it.

£638 a set of 4 in 15" will have to save up a few months first sadly. don't think we can get compomotives through work either so won't be able to get them any cheaper.

how much do they weigh?

if they're anything like mo's they won't be that light. but compomotives wheels are usually bloody strong which id say is better for me. i don't think 1kg for a set of wheels will matter too much when its a 600bhp+/tonne kinda deal car. plus I'm about 26kg lighter myself now since start of the year.

True I guess, I think the internet has made me obsessed with strength and light weight when I buy rims. Current car excluded of course.

I'm more obsessed with trying to find some other 15's that fit over the brakes without the need for 5mil spacers. currently found none other than mo's.

Those wheels do look awesome. But they are a bit "scene" looking. They would fit right in on an un-driveable VW parked on some long grass.
Not hardcore enough for your car, which is why the MO5's suit it. Would try stick with something old school.
