Alright, alright I admit I have a set on order! :whistle:

Okay you know I'm joking but I did look to see how serious these guys are.  And worryingly enough, they're very serious.  I'm spending a couple of weeks in the good 'ld US of A later this year, I'll keep an eye out to see if there are any idiots with these on the road.

Quite like the idea of the illusion, but not on wheels that size.

Easy, found them in Xoutpost where they are similarly 'impressed'......not!!  My limits are simple.  Style 215 wheels and the pukka square exhaust kit......not that I can afford either option now.. :'(.  :-[
