Cant decide what alloys I want!!
« on: 21 January 2009, 16:25 »
As you've seen on an old thread tyres are too big on the alloys i have, so i'm just going to get some new alloys. Ideally would like some BBS but out of my price range. Ideally would like 16's or 17's. Any ideas???  :huh:

BBS are expensive but there are quite a few different manufacturers making wheels with a BBS style but without the price tag  :smiley: .

I,ve got 15" vr6 BBS wheels for the winter and some 17" BSA livewires for the summer that have a similar design as the BBS.

Personally 16's all the way i've read loads of threads on here and looked at all the photo's. 17's look PIMP but not my style. I share your views on BBS wheels though!
Its a mighty decision to make Good Luck!

I like the look of smaller wheels, either 15 or 16. anything with a decent lip/dish!
