Not just because of that other thread. I've thinking of a change for a while



I wanted either the 16" Comp MO's with Reyland Brakes.

Ronal Turbos? (It does work, did a shop years ago)

Raceline RL7's

RL7s would rock.

Turbos wouldn't look right IMO, but I don't like them on any car.

Erm MOs would be good, and you'd get the reylands under 15s, but make sure you get the flat spoke ones, they're so much nicer than the 'new' style ones.

Can't think of anything else

There is just so many things you can do with wheels rather than buying a cast alloy.

Billet? Magnesium?

Phil, Corsa808's current car has MOs too

What about Cav Turbo ones? You'd have to go 5 stud, but that's no biggie.

Phil, you know corsa808 was Dave A's old username don't you?

As for new rims - I don't think Comp's would suit your car, as it looks too 'looked after' as such, not enough of a slag to pull off the race look IMO.
Granted, its faster than mine, and quite a lot of others, but I don't think it would look right.

Phil, look into fitting rims off other cars - I checked it out last week. Like Sportyboy has D90's, I found out that Merc rims amongst others have the same fitment so you should be able to get them on with some adaptors.

pro race 1.2's in black with a colour coded rim to match your car. Would look snazzy
