looked good at the show, and certainly got loads of attention! i did have a little giggle though and thought if just the sport bit of the sticker came off, it would say 'powered by jam' well made me chuckle anyway

Must admit, my cav rims weren't that heavy when I had the tyres off.....
Even with the toyo 195/45s on they still weren't mega heavy.

Compomotives are heavy!
For all your wheel-weight needs check out this list!
http://www.wheelweights.net/
Lightest wheels for the money are Superleggera's 
Car looked very cool, although there was a guy on the Jamsport stand tryin to pass your car off as his, which I found very amusing.

I saw you come over, but when Mark appeared by his car earlier, he kind of shrugged me off a bit, so I didn't wanna push my luck a second time 
I hope it was just cos he didn't recognise me at first, not that I'm a lepper or something
