HRE CF40's on my R8

[gigharbor1]

Not a good use of money, but they feel great on the road. Using a bathroom scale: 20 x 11 rears weigh 21.0 lbs; 20 x 8.5 fronts weigh 18.0 lbs. They are a little blingy up close, but they are growing on me.

Is it me or has it got a bit of Veyron about it with the bling and the bodykit?

[Davey_Dee]

Veyron doesn't have an ugly bodykit

[ianerrid]

IT doesn't need a bodykit to be fugly......

Gentlemen, be nice now...

Gig -

I think it looks fine. Are these going to be your track wheels? If so, what R-compounds have you found in the 20" size?

I recall that you have the car lowered on H&R sport springs. Did you have any issues with the larger wheels & tires fitting in the wheel wells?

I wondered the same thing on this thread:

Lowered with 20'' wheels

There's a few comments about it on there
