Re: TSW Donnington's V2 *Pics*
I really like what you have done with it, and I am generally not a fan of all black wheels.
The intense blue color helps you get away with the all black rims, and it looks great. The other subtle touches - handles, strakes, windshield surround, debadge, etc just make it look all much more clean.
Nice work.

Re: TSW Donnington's V2 *Pics*
Hey softball i have spent 6 days researching this wheel spacer deal and idk what the best option is i do need to know if you used the stock lug bolts or did you have to get different ones if so what does the donington need the ball or tapered ones I'm just trying to get everything i need up front so I'm not waiting around for another week after my wheels get to me... Thanks dude!

I bought some black lugs from TSW for the rims. For the spacers u will need longer cone head seated lugs for the rims.
Keep me updated.

The black ones that you orderd did they have the ball seat or the cone seat your previous post confused me
Re: TSW Donnington's V2 *Pics*
I didn't think I'd like black rims on a blue Crossfire but it looks good. I also like the color matching you've done on the trim pieces. Have you considered smoking the headlights and tail lights? I think it would tie it all together with the black rims and tint.

Make absolutely sure you have the proper length. If they are just ever so slightly too long on the rear, you will be doing an emergency brake repair. Plenty information can be found on this forum to measure for the proper length once you get your rims.

Thanks dude. The rotors are R1 Concepts cross drilled/slotted. Running Akebono brake pads all around for minimal brake dust. Works well.
