I did have some 17" Wolfrace Suzuka Silver alloys on but I hit a pot hole and cracked one. Now Wolfrace have stopped making them and I can't get it repaired. So I was looking at these new alloys, people's opinion's would be greatly recieved.

And where abouts are you getting them from?

Yeah I was leaning towards those Bushido wheels, i've kept the tyres from my old wheels as there only 2 months old, got 205/40/17 Avon ZZ3 tyres
 
These are my previous wheels they are the same as the second choice but the second picture are Shadow Chrome versions

As soon as I get the wheels am gonna get it lowered it's all in the pipeline, got a quote of £160 fitted dropping it 45mm. I was looking at Red Dragon styling or Wheel Worx they seem to be the cheapest i've seen so far
 
Nice.

itll look sweet when its lowered!!

ive found a new set of springs to drop mine 30mm

but i dont know how much labour is gonna cost or whether i should tackle it myself!?

I've been given my quote by somebody who used to work for the Hyundai Rally Team, he's just set up his own business here in Grimsby and he give me that quote to drop it 45mm
 
£160 is a good price.

the springs im gonna buy are £99 themselves.

£60 seems fair for removing all 4 wheels changing the springs and a refit (y)
 
Yeah thats what I thought so just need to save up some cash now, hate going back to the old 15" wheels, it sucks.
 
you tried potn.com for your wheels or rochford tyres? i would have a look on ebay shops for your wheels mate. :)

think i like the st type jobbo's better now. :)
 
I have seen a lot of people looking at the right hand wheels, they appear to be very popular with gp owners. I would probably go with the st style ones to be different. Definately shop around though because the savings could be massive.
