mikeyb10supra Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Get your stock wheels back on mate......you will go a long way to beat the quality of these......depends what your after more bling.....of better handling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 i would have done that ages ago mate but i don't have any stock wheels..... the car had 8.5s all round when i bought it....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 i would have done that ages ago mate but i don't have any stock wheels..... You can get em dirt cheap.....lots of people always selling on here I run the stock 16's on mine, not to nice to look at but not terrible.....17" UK wheels would be a better choice!!! look better that the 16"!!! if you go aftermarket, you need to go a long way to beat the stock wheels in all areas.......the only advantage these aftermarket wheels have over stock is they look way nicer.....and in certain cases are sometimes marginly lighter hope this helps, have a word with Chris Wilson, I know he is very up on this topic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 i know Chris Wilson is up on this topic... ..unfortunately his views are either get stock wheels or aftermarket wheels with the correct fitment if any at all..... shame is i just can't afford any wheels at the moment...... how much am i lookin at for some 16s d'you reckon? (i know stock 17s are very popular so can't afford them...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO I reckon you could get some 16" for about 100-200 with tires......even that may be a bit too much.....your best off posting in the wanted section, lots of people are always choping and changing.....try ebay as well..... Stick with some 16" or 17" wheels mate you cant go far wrong Good luck Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
