Very nice, but a question are the knock on's an option or an after add on? Don't seem to recall dealer here mentioning them when i had ordered mine. Cheers

Thanks, I purchased the Roadster new off the 'forecourt' as it matched my order spec almost 100% (and I was too impatient to wait!) Im guessing not an option but an after add on.

Do you mean the two eared spinners, or the wire wheels? The spinners are an aftermarket accessory (also available through Aero Racing as well as other suppliers) - they don't pass the safety regs so cannot be supplied on a car direct out of the factory. The wire wheels are optional - those or alloys...  Beautiful looking car...

I'm wondering because the two ear spinners have been standard on all Roadster Sports from 2010 directly mounted in the factory.
BTW the octagons weight 600 gr., the two ear 780gr. the three ear 1180 gr. But the three ear spinners look amazing with black 6,5 x 15 wire wheels.

Just a but good. I like the over-riders. I think they would look good fitted to my black Plus Four. Must look into that.

I think you'll find they are Aero Racing supplied... They do look a lot nicer than the octagon

Correct Graham. They fitted them to my car soon after I bought it. Not cheap but they do finish off the front end nicely.

On the roadster the rims are wide enough that the "ears" do not protrude beyond the outside of the tyres. On anything less than 205 rubber and the 7" stainless wheels they stick out and could be a danger to pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists.
