Title: need some steelies!
Post by: golfpro on 23 February 2006, 08:50

right, im sick of kerbing my wheels on these stupid bloody roads around here. why ever the hell would u put a pavement on a road where noone walks and thats not wide enough for two cars with it there! :angry:

so i have been thinkin of gettin some preferably widened steelies with black centres and a shiny rim. am i lookin for something that doesnt exist? will i be able to find something like this in 16 or 17 so i can still fill my arches the same? any help appreciated. ta

They do exist, but not in 16, or 17. Yet! Have a search on google.

there is just no way of not kerbin your wheels around here joe, the roads arnt wide enough to get two cars through most of the time without havin to go up onto the kerb, so when u meet a buss or a lorry then you have no choice atall! its really fun when two busses meet! :undecided:

Im thinkin about just kep in these on and destroyin them in time, then, when theyre shagged and im leavin this place il get me some new ones. 16s from vw dont sound like a bad idea, if they make them.

My german is shocking john, but il hav a look and see how i get on.

Just phone them. I've spoken to German companies before and they all seem to speak English. Much easier that way!
