18's and budget's don't mix from experience.

guess it all depends on the tyre design though.

They look ok, I wouldn't have bought them but if you like em mate, who cares. I am mostly changing my ripspeed wheels due to the 40 offset and 60mm drop and I want 49.

not changing them because of what people on here have said.

and £260......bargain.

Agreed jambo, not keen on the design at all.

I wouldn't personally buy fox but I wouldn't dislike the look of someones wheels just because they were fox.

They are Renault Megane wheels and the car came with them, if i was actually going to buy some wheels i wouldnt waste it 'Fox' imo.

Your cars nice tho, post up some pics when they are on,
