Sei alloys on a Cinq.

Hi all,
Would some standard 13" sei alloys fit on a cinq? And how do you think they will look?

Cheers

Re: Sei alloys on a Cinq.

They'll fit. Use 3mm spacers on the fronts only.

Not sure how they'll look. You'll probably find the Cinq Sporting alloys cheaper.

Good idea to lower it and fit the ARB.

Re: Sei alloys on a Cinq.

Forgot to give reasons.

IF u look at the cinq alloys and sei alloys, then compare the cinq and sei body.

Cinq body - more square shaped and the alloy is more bold and clear cut shape

Sei body - more roundy and cute, and again the design of their alloy, is a softer touch to it.

Mix and match them, i don't think it works

I think they might look ok, but not too sure.



Cheers

Re: Sei alloys on a Cinq.

gotta be better than steelies - but i wouldn't go mad in terms of how much you pay for em... I see 13" and 14" Fiat Alloys in my local scrappers all the time, for as little as £40 for the type you're discussing - £125 for a set of the 14" abarth wheels like mine...


Personally I think they will look ok - but I reckon you'll get fed up with them fairly quickly and be on the lookout for a new set (been there - done that!).
