What Alloys for Mk 3 1.4s

[dukeman358]

I was astonished to see 155/13s fitted to a relatively recent Seat

Are these standard from new??

I have seen some 15" alloys from a Mk 3 TDI, I would assume they should just fit straight on without any problems, is this correct??

Also is a rear spacesaver standard or should there be a full spare wheel?

Thanks For any help

yeah 155 13's are standard unless it's a higher model. All mk3 ibiza's including the cupra share the same pcd, so direct fit. Should be a space saver in the boot.

The 1.4s had 185/60/14 alloy wheels as standard I believe the cool/s had the 155/70/13

My ibiza cool currently has 185/60/14 although im looking for an easy upgrade... Any suggestions as to what looks good, and it not too costly?

Edit: my ibizas silver btw

That said you might have a hard time finding some as cheap as those ones!

those nice blue ones would do the job!! I'd buy em straight off for 250... why do i never spot the bargains...

ha, tell me about it mate, if someone was asking £250 for a set of them id snap their hand off.

A mate of mine just picked up some newly refurbished OZ Superleggeras with brand new Toyo Proxes for £300. It's just not fair

Tell a lie......They were superturismos.

Ah well, Im going to have to look around a little - want to pay dirt cheap for something really nice so will take me a while... Ive got the standards on right now, but theyre all scuffed from the previous owner

Ill eventually get round to sorting them (once i win the lottery)

Edit: them being the multiple dents which the previous owner also left me with!

Fairplay. ever thought about powdercoating?

 

[roloking1806]

hmm, wouldn't have a clue how much itd cost - not actually any good with cars and that.. But tryin to learn... How much would it be ? for all four alloys - they're exactly the same as yours

 

[artemis_1991]

Probably about a couple hundred quid, depends where you go really.

 

[roloking1806]

hmmm, doesn't sound too bad... Although for a couple more hundred quid i could get a nice set of alloys.......... although 450/500 is a Little too much to be paying right now..

I will look into it, although got a few things to do with the audio system first..

fairplay, keep us updated
