Neil L. 0 Posted December 16, 2004 Have just become a proud owner of 94' Blackberry VR6 :) - Now got to choose a set of rims - either Asev A's or Keskin KT1 ( or Klassik). I would prefer to go to 17's - i dont think 16's look good enough (bbs rz's 16's fitted). What are your thoughts on my choice with regard to car colour, size of wheel and what would these rims cost me? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted December 16, 2004 Well, certainly an excellent choice of colour, model and year :) And 17s are cool too. Mine's wearing Audi RS4s at the moment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neil L. 0 Posted December 18, 2004 I try get some pics up when i get my digital camera for xmas. If i choose Azev A what size? If i choose Keskins what size? I plan to lower the car 30 - 40mm on either H&R's or Eibach's - It's already got Koni's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60Jet 1 Posted December 19, 2004 go with 17's you know it makes sense!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted December 19, 2004 Azev A in 8x17 ET 30 Look Cool. Too low and you'll need arch work though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil L. 0 Posted December 19, 2004 Looks great mate! Oh! and thanks for the pics Warcraft - the car just been washed and chamoised and looks extra 8) . I'll look after U'r old car mate! These Azevs A's - are they available in the deeper dished variety? At the moment i'm slightly leaning towards the Keskins(KT1) - Tremendous looking wheel - will suit the C. down to the ground. How much will they set me back and whats the correct dimensions , et etc on the 17's? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil VR6 0 Posted December 19, 2004 Go for a ride with somebody who has 17s. I found them too hard so sold mine in favour of the original 15 inch BBs's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil L. 0 Posted December 19, 2004 My Escort RS Turbo has 17's(voodoos) - found the ride very hard as aposed to stock wheels althought it has Spax susp. I would have thought the profile of the tyre would make the difference - my C has 205 - 40 profile fitted (16's) - the same profile that most 17's would be fitted with. Are there other differences that will affect the ride? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warcraft 0 Posted December 19, 2004 the car had 17's fitted when i got it the ride was quite harsh but i changed them for the 16" bbs and the ride was noticeably better. car seemed to handle better too, turn in was sharper and less torque steer.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 19, 2004 Azev A in 8x17 ET 30 Look Cool. Too low and you'll need arch work though. I think your car looks better on the Azevs! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slot 0 Posted December 19, 2004 What are your thoughts on my choice with regard to car colour, size of wheel and what would these rims cost me?
