jma78b Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 The first one! Gorgeous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipz Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 The first ones because they have the 4 holes instead of the multi ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichellefromEssex Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 First ones definately, and not all women drivers kerb the alloys - it was my OH who did ours the week we got the car!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme09 Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 see i like the first ones too as they are different. Also these are 17's will they fit straight on without any modding of the arches etc? im looking to lower it as well so any pointers welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zetecherb Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 first ones all day long mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimp My Ride Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Personally, I like the third option because they are similar to the zetec s alloys that would look mint on your car, however they have to many holes and that will look silly so the first ones will look mint with the colour contrast on the car.

Graeme09 Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 would 17's be a good idea and will they go straight on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squaddiefox Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 i like the second option, but that is only because i am trying to get hold of some white speedline corse's in a 5 spoke design. though i dont like the look of those multifit holes. the first ones will probably go with the car better, i saw one earlier same colour with the same style wheels, though not my cup of tea, they didn't look too bad. though i will say, don't put lexarse lights on the rear! they look toss! IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bexy Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 You should find someone who can photoshop them onto your car so you can get a good idea what they will look like :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme09 Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 starting to have second thoughts don't know if I would spend that kind of money on a set of wheels to be honest. Wheels =£424 Tyres = £44 x 4 (cheapy khumo tyres) Wheel Nuts= £15 Delivery= £45 to northen Ireland which ain't tooooo bad Total = £660 Inc vat that's from alloywheels.com who are meant to be a good service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedgepig Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 would you shell out £660 to get them tho........hmmmm No, I guess not but it depends on how much disposable income you have. I wouldn't put cheapo tyres on them either but then that's even more wonga gone...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
