ChrisL 20 Posted August 1, 2022 Hi all, wondered if there would be any interest in some 17” speedlines. These would be identical to the OE corrado speedlines just bigger. B star wheels who do the bigger BBS wheels and Sebrings would do a limited run if there was enough interest. chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cressa 44 Posted August 1, 2022 A great idea, but too big for me. Do we have enough forum members for anything these days? I hope so. Thanks for looking into it 👍 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fendervg 33 Posted August 2, 2022 I tend to agree with the 15 or 16 brigade - anything bigger tends to result in an awful lot of compromises in terms of handling, ride quality vs optics and stance. I run 15" OE speedlines or Golf VR6 BBS for daily duties - I think you could definitely drum up interest for some more 5 stud 16" Speedlines (or they may even still have some in stock or be able to get them at short notice as a result of the last group buy) or a replica of the 16" VW Motorsport Vento Cup Speedlines, but not sure about anything bigger.

Keyo 47 Posted August 2, 2022 Its a shame as some of the best alloys are in 17 = especially some of the oz and momo splits. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
