Unsure on alloys for my stilo

i am unsure on what alloys to get for my black stilo 1.6 3 dr...i want 17" on it but so far have only the Oz Hydra(too exspensive) and the Wolfrace Katana(not sure abt) have caught my eye. This is because i dont think curvy alloys will go with the car. If anyone could give me any suggestions on alloys(budget being below £500) i would be grateful. cheers

Re: Unsure on alloys for my stilo

I think your on the right track with not wanting curvy alloys, more blocky spokes suit the Stilo, theres loads of wheels out there for all budgets, theres some good bargains to be had in 17" if you go to wholesale or internet based companies.

Edit: Is that wheels and tyres you want for £500? if so you might be a bit more hard pushed to find something

Re: Unsure on alloys for my stilo

If you can get the Fiat 12 spoke wheels then go for it. Of all the Stilo's I have seen these suit it best IMO. I just traded in my 1.6 that had those wheels and even though I traded it for a lovely JTD it broke my heart to let them go. Try e-bay, that's where I got them from.

Re: Unsure on alloys for my stilo

What's wrong with curvy alloys on the Stilo? I'd say mine are curvy...

Re: Unsure on alloys for my stilo

Yours are curvy, but not if you know what i mean, they got curves but they still have definate lines, which is what compliments the stilo's lines. That prob makes no sense to anyone else but it makes sense in my head!
