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

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.

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.

You should find someone who can photoshop them onto your car so you can get a good idea what they will look like :)

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

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...... :rolleyes:
