JamieP Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 TE37 look very nice, lots of money id imagine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-NA Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 IMO white TE37 on a white car will look really good, not OTT like alot of other wheels. Not a fan of bronze unless its on a black car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 They are gorgeous are the Volks. Love them in Bronze. But as above not sure if they suit white cars. Dig out some pics of white cars with bronze wheels:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lude Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 i like the all white look, not sure if i want to go bronze really? if went bronze id have to have a carbon bonnet i think. at the mo white wheels im trying to stick to?? TE37 in white..... http://www.speedalliance.com/images/Volk_Racing/TE37LargePCD.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I think the Bronze would look lovely on a white car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Also like them in white but then all white maybe a little over powering. Have a look for a pic of them straight on and somebody maybe able to do a photoshop. Its been said before and I'll say it again; The only opion which matters is yours though:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want staggered fitment, 9" all round will look odd, go 9" front and 10" rear, if you want flush fitting go with about +35 offset front and rear.

Dnk Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 You mean larger uk spec brakes ? White wheels look good on a white car but i'd got to 18's and have a 9" front and 10" rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lude Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 yea there are a lot on 18s about, the car is suprisinly low, i think im gonna stick to 17. think the standard offset is 50, so need to work it from that really ye? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Whiffin Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Any more suggestions on this chaps? im looking for wheels now but dont want to do the rotas as theyve been done to death on jap cars What is your budget? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcc42uk Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Probably could go to 1500 incl tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Probably could go to 1500 incl tyres For that budget I'd suggest Weds Sport wheels, they are very good quality, light in weight and not silly money. The black chrome versions may be a little above of your budget but the other finishes should be there or there abouts. I use to have the bronze Weds SA-70 on my car, pics HERE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Probably could go to 1500 incl tyres I dont think you'll get anything out of Japan for that sort of money, definately not with tyres anyway. Rota's are about £1200 with tyres approx, same goes for Ultralite. Its a very limited area unfortunately with a huge gap in the market at the moment, you have Rota and Ultralite, then a big jump to the Japanese wheels and nothing in between. How about these wheels? http://garagewhifbitz.co.uk/images/stories/gw_images/forum pics/speedline.jpg http://garagewhifbitz.co.uk/images/stories/gw_images/forum pics/speedline2.jpg http://garagewhifbitz.co.uk/images/stories/gw_images/forum pics/speedline1.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
