WTD: Still looking for some replacement wheels...

j333ssa · 6th September 2006, 09:03 AM

Anyone with anything at all?

Still running with Dunks loan'ers at the moment but am now getting sick of phoning round and I feel guilty using someones elses wheels.... Looks like the range of decent looking alloys for the Supe is pretty limited unless I import from the States or Japan. The problem is with the sheer width these want to run at: I WAS running 17" with 8 at front an 9 at rear.

The ones Im currently looking at the moment are:

Ultralite WP177 5 spoke Battle rims in white in 17" flavour but I really dont like the shape of each spoke - they jutt out too much at the sides. Seems like this seems to be a common style...similar to Rays I think (but not the price). Seems ok value.

Also looking at some Drifz alloys which seem quite cheap in 18" flavour with a similar shape spoke pattern. These are a good deal with some cheap 18s shod to them too which I could burn up soon enough but at least it gets me back on my own rims. Also it means I could get these painted white too to match the car and still be within budget.

Still keen to hear any other suggestions?

Hiya Keron

Pm me with how much you are looking for. May be buying a set this weekend so if yours are decent I might hold back.
