Very smart and by the way the diffuser looks good, where did you get that from?

Cheers It's just off ebay. I actually have one spare as was going to put one on the typhoon but decided the typhoon looked better without it.

For some reason,the darker wheels in tHe second photo, make the car look bigger (longer). Must admit I am not a fan of black wheels, but they suit the car lovely Rick.

Winter Apex wheels every time and in that colour, ditch the summer wheels i don't think they suit the MGZT but that's my personal opinion which stands for nowt

PS do the chrome handles black

The apex wheels look bigger than the dare wheels in the pics, and I thought the Dare wheels looked bigger than 18 inch as I'd often get asked if they're 19 inch.

Don't think the black door handles would suit. looks a bit out of place imo, if I was to change them I'd colour code them. But I like the chrome door handles

Been thinking about it over the last couple days, think the Apex's will be staying on for now but next year at the start of summer I'll get the dare's refurbished and back on for the summer months. The apex's look great and probably slightly better but I feel Redfive loses it's identity without those wheels. It's those wheels that makes it stand out from the rest and is how everyone recognises the car.

Agree Rick the apex's looks fantastic and are probably the better wheel but it's all about identity with redfive so the summer dare's for me especially after a makeover 👍😀
