alloys
« on: 19 July 2005, 10:33 »
i know that i've asked this before, but i can't find my thread...

does anyone know which alloys i can buy that i can declare as standard on a mk2 driver 1991... i'm prepared to buy some if not - can bump up my premium at crimbo with 2yrs ncb!

anyone got any suggestions as to what would suit my car, and are not that expensive.. living on a student budget here!
thanks :kiss:

as a driver han there isnt really any alloys that were standard fitment... but u could go for gti wheels be it p-slots or castellets or standard 16v gti rims or even bbs.. there is a choice but to insurance companies alloys are alloys!

You could go for a set of G60 steelies. I think there really nice for steelies and suite a mk2. Wont affect y insurance either.

Depends who your insured with really a few don't mind alloys on your car don't think drivers
came with alloys but P-slots, BBS etc should look nice and original.

i can't do it til dec anyway, as i will have two years ncb, and i can then change insurer as directline won't insure me with alloys.... as for steelies i like mine, but its a shame theyre rusty.. always got my options open... some nice ones will be sweet as.... just like me!  :grin:
