Yeah, I'm still working on it. Or, at least, I *will* continue to work on it. I've got pages 70 to 76 (roughly) added.

Thanks all for the comments.

The wheels were bought off a Japanese accessories trader on eBay. They are branded GT Turismo. I had bought the wheels to replace the BBS replicas I had on the MC I traded, but after putting them on the MC I decided they were keepers. Well at least for now

It's amazing how many comments I have had about the wheels

new winter wheels - Enkei MM2's with Nokian WR's. They are silver with polished lip - the sunset makes them look more gold/bronze:

I'm sorry, i was mistaken....they are Konig Blatants.

You will need to be fast about ordering it seems....sounds like there are no longer part of Konigs current line and have been placed on the closeout/special page which means they are discontinuing it
