Wheels, opinions?
« on: 15 July 2012, 13:25 »
Hey guys,

Been scouring the web and found rimstyle.com,

http://www.rimstyle.com/pages/basket/

and on there i found these with Vredestein tires etc

http://www.rimstyle.com/alloywheels/detail/?car_model_id=12930;wheel=calibre_askari_gb;dia=18

but then i found these with Vredestein tyres which i would get in 2013 after winter,

http://www.rimstyle.com/alloywheels/detail/?car_model_id=12930;wheel=rota_grid_drift_gb;dia=18

plans are to keep the wheels and tires i have at the moment for bad weather conditions and swap over in summer to them nice shiny ones.

plans are to keep my car in the balck and silver brackets, thoughts on the wheels and tires?
and they would all be fitted for that price too

Whoop Whoop! i also found some BBS Gens but i int financing over £50 a month, them Rotas seem to be a winner then, especially with nice big Red Cali's on show  :evil:

Not too sure on the tyres but my opinion is you need some stretch on them, and you definatley need some slam! :grin:
