Re: Ats Cup Alloy Wheels

shame about the lenzo's, ebay makes us buy some funny crap, but you can always sell them on when you realise they look silly and you should have fitted sporting alloys with 195/50 tyres (best setup for your car imo, especially a speedgear).

its crazy. there is no advantage, several disadvantages, and many potential problems, so why would anyone do it?

Ah euro styling.....my own personal pet peeve...especially the wheels that look like pressed a polished version of the painted steel jobs you got as standard on cheap cars in the 80s

Re: Ats Cup Alloy Wheels, or others

ach, some people are just philistines

nah, i do kind of agree with some of the negative comments, but sometimes its just down to what you yourself think is cool on your car. personally, i would have the Compo's for looks any day, but i think with the right ride height it could look good with the lenzo's....
WTF is wrong with those alloys anyway, they are inoffensive and complement the car, IMO, rather than standing out

EDIT: er... polished steelies look great on some cars. thats not an opinion, thats a fact

Re: Ats Cup Alloy Wheels

bought small wheels too late, gearbox possibly already killed now, lost forward drive on m11, got a few electrical things to check, but could be an inside the box fault
