nixy Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I'd really like to change my wheels at some point soon but pesuading my other half to let me spend any more cash will be difficult! I'm not into anything 'bling' but could do with a few ideas of what will look good without looking cheap but also without costing a small fortune.

stuey Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 how much do u wanna spend......... andy is your best bet.......... he looked after me superbly.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 It's really a case of how much do I HAVE to spend! I know there can be wheel snobbery from some people but I don't care as long as I think they look nice. Put it this way, I would have no chance of spending a grand!

xStric9x Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 What about trying to find a cheap set of rays Nixy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomoto Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 plenty of choice for below a grand Stuey's wheels look fantastic as do Rickya's all are below the grand mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zzzz... Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Or you don't need to change, get them powder coated in black with a nice matching orange style line around the circumference and a hard wearing lacquer over the whole lot, should give you a neat look to your motor for around 80 quid a wheel. (for a proper respray and bake job, i think you can get them resprayed cheaper... but work on worst case and you will always be pleasantly surprised...)

nixy Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 how strange! I don't actually like black wheels. As mentioned above a second hand set of somethng might be an option - then there's tyres....just don't feel I can do anything else to improve the car's looks until the wheels have been done.
