Wheel decisions....
« on: 16 January 2011, 20:00 »
Hmm...really can't decide on what wheels to get, narrowed it down to three:

16" BBS RX (the pic is 17"): bit different to the norm, don't see many mk2s on these (at least i don't)



16" Borbet A: would probably be 7j, as don't really want to get stuck into cutting my arches out for 9j right now, though I think there's no other way with Borbet than 9j (little rhyme I live by....lol) though the second pic....I do LOVE this car!




or 15" ATS Cups...one of my favourites, but haven't really got the money to refurb them every other year, heard bad things about laquer peel on them



EDIT: is there no poll option anymore??

Borbet A's as a first choice for me then the ATS Cups (this is what i have as my summer wheels) and then the bbs ones. To be fare though i would have them all if i had the money to do. :grin:

I should say ats cups as ive got a pair... agree'd that laquer peel is a b!tch.

But theres something about colour coded borbet 9s that makes me sex wee.

Reckon borbets would work with small bumbers?

I think the Borbets would look too big on a small bumper...personal opinion only, haven't seen it done tho

for some reason borbet A's just look wrong these days (black one pulls it off though)
gone are the deep dish and poke days


ATS cups are nice but BBS RX's win this time.

looking for 16'' RX II splits myself  :smiley:
