Default Mags for the Fiesta

Can everyone note where they got their mags from, as im having a real problem finding some nice mags for the fez. I like the Toyo Proxies as tyres and now looking for a 17" mag to fit the tyre

Let me know please

Ive got a set of MP3 17s and they look the dogs nutzz, if i dont say so myself. On occasions they have been available on ebay for 600 - 800 without tyres, which is a bit steep but they look HOT.

That's interesting photn.....I thought ROH had finished making the Strada's, they're certainly not in their current lineup on the website

Not as good as Stradas : :

Although If everyone starts getting them, We'll have a repeat of ROH Envy on every VL Commo syndrome. Then I'll have to order some OZ Superleggeras....
