what are your perfect wheels for a 'Rado and why? Disc

Recommended Posts

BBS RK2's... i've loved them ever since I saw them on Guy Hartleys Storm. One of the best wheels for the Corrado bar none.

I created mine by buying some brand new wheels and then painting them with hammerite :lol:

I still love the speedlines i once had on mine from the vento cup series. Ultimate oe upgrade imo.

 

Infact I love them so much i've bagged a 2nd set off the bay, can't beleive nobody spotted em on a vento that was being broken. I just have no car to put them on :(

Alot of people are going to like what they have already. I love them so I got them. Im no different :). Do like wheels with a bit of deep dish to them. Also from a design point the corrado has curves and a simplistic shape to it which I think makes a simple rounded 5 spoke work well. Its not a fussy car. That said I worship bbs too. Think they all work.

Some pics of my creations using hammerite :D

 

Ive always wanted some black centered borbet a's...so i painted some brand new ones :lol:

I think most deep dish wheels really suit the low slung coupe shape of the corrado. 8)

LM's are my fave wheel, but I don't think they look best on a corrado for some reason!?

 

LM's are possibly my favourite wheels aswell but as you said - they just don't work on a Rado. Think it's because they are 18's and 18 is just tooooo big on a C IMHO!!

 

Not if you have 17's Like Mine 8) :lol:

Nick, give me a shout if you ever decide to sell ;) Love 'em. Ideally I'd have Vento Cups, Borbet Cs or BBS RX2s 8) Can never find any though :(

I really liked these OZs I had on my last C. 15"s, but not sure what flavour though. And the ride height is ludicrous too.

Maybe reviving an old thread a bit here 8) but my all time favourite wheels for any Dub, have to be............

 

BBS RS of any kind on any Dub 8) 8) (especially the 301`s, (just sold mine :( )

 

BBS RM`s 8) got em on my mk1 cabrio, and i widened them :D

 

and Borbet A`s 8) (yet to go on the C) I have also had a set of RH ZW1`s and a set of RC`s and they are both awesome wheels, i have a bit of a wheel "whore gallery" :lol: ..........here ya go :D other than these i like most of the standard rims vw`s came with to be fair, some other stuff just looks cheap or is poor quality imho
