need some advice guys...
« on: 15 January 2011, 19:45 »
right im thinking of selling my r32 reps and buying some mk4 4 motion alloys.. as the tyre prices on 18's are just killing me.. and i can get 17's pretty cheap from local garage but he has fook all for 18's.... im getting really fed up of it as the tyres always burn a hole in my pocket and i would like alloys which show off the red calipers more and my new shiny discs which will be on soon  :grin:

but im in 2 minds .. cant make my mind up... so i need some advice guys .. what shall i do  :undecided:

Go for it, cheaper tyres at the end of the day, will look better on 18"s however.

hmmm but wont it sit better then 18's?? as iv seen 4motion mk4's they sit quite flush.. something i can live wid ( as i have humps everywhere in my area)...

but the gap i got with these r32's is huge everyone who see's the car says needs lowering badly .. but i just cant cus i know when i do it something is gonna start rubbing and when i climb a curb to park, which sometimes gotta do this sh!t road i live on, then will definelty catch and break something off  :cry:

also any1 got any decent pics with 4motion alloys on... as google aint helping at the mo  :lipsrsealed:

17's will look lost unless you put it on the deck, any bigger than standard wheels is a must for lows!!
