That's good! Although I find it weird they don't do the anthra in the same fitment as the white

Mine do, I know your discs are bigger but spoke design is the deciding factor, not offset.

They're also heavy but don't bend. Tyre choice affects the weight to a greater degree.

im not so sure, its the width of the caliper and these are pretty wide, with the spacers clears easily but they are 10mm out over et35, et35 would be very close to touching the caliper imo, with these cossie wheels anyway

also being 6 pot the caliper is a lot longer, thats where the extra diameter comes from as thats the widest point of the caliper

Yeah it's not directly comparable, my point is that although offset and spacers does address the problem, it's not the only approach.

Have you spoken to Comp? May be worth talking to them about the wheel profile against your brakes to see what is possible in the correct offset even if you don't end up buying that particular wheel.

well these ones iv settled for are the correct offset so i guess we will have to see, i believe the spokes on the speedlines are quite forgiving though

Is it because the corner goes right and the wheels are pointing left

Would have preferred silver, put it that way.

Someone shop them and I might have a trip to Halfords this afternoon

Steve doesn't need them right now, he has wheels that are fine so I don't understand why he wont wait a few more weeks to get the colour he wanted
