both from ebay yeah, Tegwia Imports (i think thats how you spell it)

they have got a set of white sparco's for sale aswell, was going to have them but they were a bit out of my budget.



anyway, i would go for the sparco's

get the mugens and people will constantly be saying... "nice rota's" :lol:

Fashion over function; Sparco
Function over fashion; Mugen

I hate the looks of the Mugens, but 4,9kg is really bad-ass for a 15" rim!

isn't it the other way around?

RnRs are prone to cracking
where as the NS2 looks pretty strong coz of the mesh design IMO

ive seen cracked RNRs not purddy

the car they are going on is red right? I think the RNR's would look better on a red hatch :thumb:

Or if you get the sparcos, swap the blue caps out for red or black 8)
