Borbet A centres
« on: 22 November 2011, 18:02 »
Not sure of this is the right place to start this thread but hay fcuk it.
Aa some of you no I fancey a change of my wheels.
Have been offered some borbet A's but they are the horrible hex centre ones.
Anybody no if the flat centres from flat ones fit the hex wheels?
What I mean is if I get them can I just buy flat centres and swap them? 
Also do borbet A's look any good on mk3's

Also are all borbet A centres the same size?
What I mean is will the centres from 16" wheels fit the 15" wheels?

They look Awsome on the mk3! LL and stu (LL's sidekick) both have em round my way, dunno if stu is on here tbh, as his is matt black with a vento front end so would give u an idea if u could see it.  :undecided: oh his borbets are harlequin colours though!  :grin:

Yeah I really want to go deep dish now so they won't work. Dam it. Would have been perfect if they was deep.  :cry:
