Where's the best showroom for alloy wheels and what size?

[oxfordpaul 0]

Want to upgrade VR6 wheels - 16 or 17"? 7" or 7.5", what ETA? What size tyres on each - eg 205/40 17 or 215/40/17?

 

Also where has a large display (I live in Oxford). Has anyone any thoughts on BK Racing wheels (style 299) - featured in VW Motoring July 04 on a car - look nice, but are they going to last? Other considerations are BBS RXII but these are 3x the price! Any help/thoughts appreciated

Ultimately you get what you pay for. Yes the BBS costs three times as much but they are well made and will be worth 3 times as much and will be far easier to sell if you were to ever consider changing wheels at a later date.

 

Check out Styledynamix in Hayes just off the A40 as you come into London as they will be able to give you good advice.

OK guys BBS looks favourite! What ETA and what size - 16 or 17" also, what width tyres do you guys have?

I would go for a 7 or 7 1/2 x 16 with 205/40/16 tyres ET 30 or maybe even ET 25.
