Have you done the front pair as well? You don't realise how poor some kit wheels are, until you see a comparison like this. Love the flats and bulges🌟🌟🌟 I hope not Rob so far these are the only ones in existence, I've not done anything with the front ones as the ones in the CA kit are ok, unlike the Airfix ones.

Those wheels really look the part Go on, you know you want to! John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
