They are Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2, I expect you have seen a lot of cars with those wheels outside Halfords.


Yep,even seen a set on my old 306 when it was sitting outside my house.

But they were exactly like them with the red lip.

Exactly, was having this discussion on Northloop about the RS, could get a ST for 9k and spend 5k on it and have a car better than the RS all for under 15k.

To me I'd rather do that.

I think everything on the car is right, if it looked normal it wouldn't be as special.
I'm surprised they put coilovers on it, i wonder if they have set them up in any way or you choose when you order it. most likely just put on and set to a default setting.

I think they consulted the chaps on Corsa C in regards to the styling.

Would look much much better all in black.

IS it me, or do they look "cheap and tacky" in those pics?

I know they've got good specs, go fast, and we've got a basic little brother, but those red tape stickers roudn the rim...

Would look right at home outside a Halfords/McDonalds on a thursday night for some rich boy boyracer?

I did like, but those last two shots, ewwwww tackey

id rather they were just black on black without the stripes. ive never been a fan of pinstriped rims, unless theyre on a moto gp bike. not a fan of th e70s castrol door decals either.

nice car, id have one, but would need to de-sticker it.
