New wheel opinions

[sartain87]

So i have narrowed my choice down to 2 wheel options, trying to stay away from Pegs (although i have found a good price for 19's with tyres if anyones intrested?)

So first we have, TSW Hockenheims:

or BBS ch replica's:

Both will be 18's and battle ship grey or black.

Plenty on the VW forums, but then you gotta mess around with adaptors and all sorts. These will just fit straight on. As nice as they look haha

[V70 Graham]

Out of the two, probably the TSW's

[dtp]

Out of those two I would say BBS. But have a look Rota wheels they are very light. Also team dynamics Imola the style you are looking at.

[t5steve]

Tsw's in grey

Aren't rota wheels difficult to find in 5x108 and not very strong? I've seen some shocking pictures before of them cracking etc

TSW for me where and how much?

[sartain87]

Cheap, and ill find out for Deffinate in a few days ;)

[Kingsford G]

Whats wrong with comets?If out of 2 Id choose bbs but I think a gun metal pegs will look nicer all of them

[sartain87]

Nothing at all just fancy something retro and think 19" pegs will be too big

19b are pain,18 or 17.I bet amg dishes would look nice if lowered.

[LiamT4]

BBS always look good.

Joke, yes? Look like they should go on an xr2

[craigoodwood]

i'd have a vasectomy for a set of 18" hockenheims in 5x108 :D

[AcidicDavey]

Out of those then the BBS.

Get these instead though (http://www.performancealloys.com/wheel-details.aspx?ID=2222), a bit dear but you'll get the Porsche Twist look without the need of expensive adaptors :)

[sartain87]

As nice as they look, for nearly £1000 for a set with tyres, not at the minute.

[T5frankie]

sapphy on hocks, yum yum

[T5frankie]

they are saying on passionford that they are nice but a very very weak wheel

[sartain87]

To be honest mate even the bbs reps are, and the real ones are over £1k easy.

Ill keep the comets but will give me time to eventually get them refurbed aswell

comets look really nice refurbed and on your car would look much better in hyper silver, there is a forum member called roger who has a silver v70r who comes round mine sometimes, his wheels were bright silver and looked the tits

[sartain87]

But the same colour as the car? Have you seen them in black on a silver car?

[T5frankie]

trust me mate they looked the absolute business, his car was very clean

[sartain87]

That's my down fall, bumper and other plemishes. That's why the car stays dirty haha

[T5frankie]

[sartain87]

I was thinking about it, get that red bus finished and ill give you the opportunity to swap for mine! No need to thank me.

[T5frankie]

its gonna be the best on the forum mate and its worth loads

[sartain87]

Like I say ill give you a one time offer to swap when it's finished. Honestly no need to thank me for my generosity haha
