dazzyvr6 0 Posted January 17, 2004 i always say its down to personal preference,when i got my wheels i wasnt sure they would suit it,but i was wrong...lol..what size would you prefer??and what width?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm 0 Posted January 17, 2004 I've been thinking the same thing for a long while, The corrado in Perf VW mag this month has 17" BK racing 121's on it and IMHO it looks the dogs danglers! If you look at the wheel in a catalogue, it looks crap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigben 0 Posted January 17, 2004 not sure on size at all really some nice 8 by 15s but if i was to go as big as 18 i would only want 7.5 or even 7 inch wide!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheesy 0 Posted January 17, 2004 Bigben, R u showing on a stand at doncaster? or just with mates? I've been told by my mate that 50 cars are being turned away a day at the moment. If u go for 18's you don't really want to go more than 7" width wheel i'm running 7x18 chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W3RKD 0 Posted January 17, 2004 bbs are allways good.. depends on what style you are after... i dont really know alot about alloys but think you should go for one of the quailty brands . and maybe a 16" rim would be good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These wheels are off my old corrado and they are Brock B1 Nice what ever they are....they look very much like the Power Techs on SuperGolf Imports' website. Brocks are fab wheels.....that amount of dish is not Brembo friendly though unfortunately :x How much are the Brocks? K Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
