Переглядів 4137 місяців тому
It's that time again when I go buy custom wheels because the perfect fitment (without spacers), just doesn't exist... This time, I went with the Spanish motorsport wheel manufacturer, Braid. Braid are known for extremely tough wheels and they also offer a bespoke service. Many emails, photos and months and here we are.

      @talibancat393 ok, well if you just want to improve your driving and have fun, just buy something cheap, like a Clio RS, invest in some good rubber, better pads and fluid, seats and harnesses and then strip out excess weight. The less extreme you go, the cheaper and more reliable you are. Once you reach a decent level, upgrading suspension is a good idea. The fastest people I know on track, who have the most fun, are the ones with the simplest cars.
