looks very well, they are a nice wheel, not too many cars can pull of a 'claw' but they really do suit the stilo, for a car manufacturers wheel they are nice

Superb Stiloboy! I love them claws - Its true I normally hate 3-spoke design alloys but the Claws work excellently and really suit the car...........
Its one of the reasons I bought our car though i have still to get the Mrs to OK the £500 for a set of Claws - I sacrificed a good deal on the car to buy one without Claws :eek:
I'm still looking for a set if anyones got some going for a good deal?!!
With those - a set of lowered PI springs and full side moulding colour-coding I'll be sorted!

Lowered.... nah! i drive over about 40 speed bumps a day!

Don't spend £500 on a Claws, get them on ebay for half the price!

Gotta say i'm glad i researched my tyres, they are sooooooo quiet! Corner ok too, which i guess some folk think is important!

3 spokes, yeah heard a lot of folk say that, but i see 6 spokes?

The Asian bloke who came up to me in the garage and complimented them cheered me up no end! :D

The Negotiator proud of me? how so? he'll deny i've fitted them, or that i've even bought them, and then that Fiat don't even make Claw Alloys!

Oh tht looks so much beta!

But i'd say thats at least a 50mm drop maybe abit more. . .
I think you'd have to go with coilovers for a drop like that. Worth it though :devil: Obviously not if speed bumps are a problem; I couldnt be arsed to risk losing the sump every 5 mins! Its close enough for me with a 25mm drop :rolleyes:
