advice please on these

[smiff]

Don't need to be sorry mate as i said i aint botherd about looks at the moment i neede some 18's for the grip factor my motor was a death trap with the 16's on and these were at the time abit different and suited my budget. They wont be on for to long as soon as the tyres are done they are going.

18"s for grip??? 16"s are probably one of the better sizes, you just need to get something with a decent profile, anything more than 45/50 is going to be bouncy and will grip for so long then give way on extended harsh cornering as they flex.

The 18's sorted my problems at the time just get a lot more grabing from the white lines and potholes

 

[smiff]

Sorry hijacked your thread
BEOWOLF i would go for the LCR wheels they are the best looking wheel for a leon or a multi spoke wheel like a teamdynamics monza

 

[BEOWULF]

will have a look at hothatch to c what they have got in for my budget

 

[BEOWULF]

its nice to be a bit different but i kinda like them don't know why ?

 

[smiff]

Did you get your boostgauge sorted i forgot to check your thread from last weekend if not im doing nowt today so my offer is still their

 

[probee]

I think to be individual you need to do you want to do and not ask peoples opinions. i think they look ok on the leon (surely any 18" would). If you like them, get them. dont be put off by others not liking them, they are just giving their honest opinions.

 

[BEOWULF]

well with my budget being a bit tight i was going to go for them or

@smiff no not done yet bit busy this weekend but next weekend i am free if u could help me out then that would be great
