New Wheel Ideas?

[PhilW]

Right, basically at some point this year for the shows i wanna get some new wheels.

I was thinkin something a bit euro, but not too euro, 16 or 17" and 2 piece. I got in mind a a set of BBS LM's, but with the centres painted blue or cream.

I'll sell my 17" RS4's and use my Superlegs as track wheels/winter wheels.

Any thoughts?

LMs would be very nice! How about looking at some of the Image range aswell.

 

[PhilW]

See, its stuff like that i need, i'm really out of touch of what wheels are about. Thanks, will check out image range now.

i think the lms seem pretty common. i think bbs ch alloys in anthracite with chrome lip would look the nuts, if you could get them in the right size and fitment. just my 2p

il have the Superlegs lol

Image are nice but not cheap. They are pretty much what I would call show wheels as I wouldnt run them apart from for shows and no other road use. Rial Nogaro, Daytona and Daytona Race are nice aswell. Not sure if they are genuine splits if you want them though and I think the Daytona Race come in 19 as the smallest.

Do you want 4x100 or would you consider adapters Phil?

 

[PhilW]

Im open to options really, been thinkin about some porsche wheels, the turbo twist ones.

 

[p34ch3y]

get the adaptors and then get the new style rs4 wheels............ow yes

porsche 928's different from the normal idea of D90's,

The twists ae a good idea, but would that not be fake turbo twists due to size? Could be wrong.

They are ok. Porsche wheels or me would have to be thses though- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Porsche-Boxst...14&_trkparms=72:1689|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318

Dont think i could get away with 19s. lol.

To be honest i reckon any two piece would look good with the centres sprayed blue thinkin about it.

I don't know if you've seen this video that was posted in the video section.

I know they're not SEATs, but there's some really nice wheels in it, especially the blue MK3 Golf about 26 secs in.

does depend alot on your budget when it comes to wheels... pick up a performance VW mag, you will get loads of ideas in there

Go on Phil be the first to do 19x10 on the rear of an Ibiza!

The smooth blue Ibiza on air ride has bbs with the center done blue. It does look nice but yours would look very similar. If they are show only wheels and you wanted a colour I would go cream centers if they are splits other wise Id just keep them highly polished.

Exactly what i was thinking to be honest, i reckon cream would look awesome for show wheels.

 

[pj1985]

Cream ftw I think. I still think those 19inch porsche rims would be sooooo nice! Might take a little bit of work but nobody else would have them!

 

[MIkey kc]

i think the these porsche wheels would look awesome and they are 17" so easly do able
