think it looks good man
id be worried about a drop on those without a pretty good fender roll. not much room to drop it without quite a bit of rubbing nice finish on the wheels, looks very nicely done

Very nice! Love some SF-71s. In my opinion the SF-71s are best looking aftermarket wheels for the 1. That's why I have them on my car.
Not sure about the right hand drive thing though.

I like the contrast with the rotors. Drilled and slotted would really set it off. You can pull off stock right height 19's, but a drop would def look great.
Regardless, you got a nice storm trooper 1 |

Did you do this on purpose?? The lines of the windows match up perfectly lol:
Either way, the car looks great. A good set of rims really sets the look for the whole car, especially when you get rid of the boring alloy-type rims. Looks great, and I'm glad you're enjoying it, since that's the most important part. Congrats!

how much weight they add to the stock wheels? and can you feel a difference in performance ? Also what size wheels/tires do you have?

I can speak from experience.... If it doesn't rub on stock suspension it won't when you lower it. Our stock m sport suspension was so soft compared to aftermarket that I was rub a dub dub when I put my VMR v710's on and then I lowered it and viola no more rubbing because it was more stiff in the rear
As for SF-71 their offset is less aggressive so you should be able to lower it without any fender work needed as long as you aren't running larger than 225/255.... Hope that helps and happy lowering! PS I am running Eibach Pro and Koni Yellow Adjustable on mine for reference.
