urgh...big rims. If you've gotta increase the rolling diam to get them in there, or go less than a 40 profile tyre...they're too big

He has a another set of 20's on the zetec before he went with those one. These latest one are 100% better than the last set which looked like dinner plates |

Wheels looks great for a photo. Very impractical though. Although I'm from the land of AFL, he doesn't look too big for a league player.

Ah the infamous flossin focus. Ive spotted this car about 3 times now.
The wheels look fantastic. One of the best designs for the foc.

He's doing alright for himself, just signed a contract extension to take him through until the end of 2011.

thats an average size for the position he plays (wing / centre). He's got a bit of pace though. |
