Help me pick some wheels?
« on: 03 February 2006, 23:08 »
H everyone, id like some help deciding on wheels for my 85 gti. its on adjustable coilovers and i want to lower it a little more maybe on 14 or 15's, the current wheels are 15's. i like the deepdish style of the brock b2's and the like. here are a few pics...





Budget is sub £1500

i dont want anything to wide, id prefer NOT to have to do any body work etc to make them fit!

thanks for the help!

Well, I'd normally say the standard BBS, but your car's a little chavy for them I think. Just go for the Borbet's like everyone else mate.

I love the B2's! id love to see a set of black wheels on the car cause it might look good! ive never seen the B2's in real life, can anyone tell me how deep that lip is? it looks about 1.5inches? if i go for those, do they come in 14 and 15"? if so which should i get? i assume if i go 14 then i can lower the car more then i could on 15's ? thanks for the help!

I'd definitely go with 15's. Can't go wrong with BBS splitties IMO, with a little wider outer rims and some stretched 195 tyres. :cool:
