Post by: Dazzler on January 25, 2012, 09:05:43: It's so shiny I just realised by the colour of the light reflectors it is not brand new (I don't mind the Chrome reflectors anyway)

What mileage has it done? (If you don't mind me asking?)

Post by: syecadelic on January 25, 2012, 09:51:00: Looking pretty sweet dude,
only thing id suggest is a set of lowering springs for the car, that arch gap makes the wheels look lost :(

Nice choice, i'd also advise some rim wax or something similar to help keep the brake dust from eating into that nice finish.

Bob Jane touts them as "Made by Kumho" which normally means they're made by the manufacturer to the retailer's specifications. Sort of like a house brand.
Can't tell you if they're any good as I've had no experience with them.
