Alloy wheel replacemment/spare?

[Hudson]

Hi chap/esses I'm after some new wheels for my ibiza fr - can anyone recommend any as I have no clue what I'm looking for. Also is it possible to get a new/spare/replacement set of the 17" ibizamk4 fr wheels and where from.

Cheers

if you mean finding a replacment stock wheel dealers will be to get you one but will take your eyes out for it though. So if I was you I would buy a replica alloy for a fraction of the price.

replica seems the way forward but where from? and what type of alloy (name or manufacturer) is the standard fr wheels?

not sure I know http://www.performancealloys.com do some replicas but Im not sure what FR wheel you are on about as there is more than one kind of FR wheel

reps are heavy, check ebay for original ones, unsprung weight and all that....

personally Iv never had a prob with reps, they generally are exactly the same as seats own just with out the jacked up prices. Anyway as s3tony said might be worth checking the bay for one but dont think there are many on.
