trying to find good set of wheels? ?

[FlawlessKev]

hi guys, i've been looking for a bit now for a set of wheels. i was wondering if any of you know if a pcd 4x100 alloy would be alright with jiggily bots aka wobbly nuts? are they just as good as a standard fit? or am i better to spend a wee bit more money and get my 4x98 fitment if i can find the lol ? has any one got them or have i to stay clear ?

they'll be fine with wobbly bolts

I have wobbly bolts on the punto and they are fine

wobbly bolts are fine and i think ransoman had a set of sporting alloys 14" but you would need to check if he still has them.mick

Ill sell you a set of proper 4x98 fiat fit 17's for 400 lol

In all honesty i dont really trust wobbly bolts. That why i got a set of proper 4x98 alloys now i can only sell them for a fiat or alfa other wise they would have ben on the ovlov

I ran wobblys for about a year and a half on two sets of wheels and never had a problem.

I have read various arguments for and against them however all I can see as an argument against them is personal preference. Personally i would go for 4x100 - you get a wider selection of wheels which means you can hopefully find something you really like.

no problem whatsoever with the wobbly bolts i had 4x100 wolfrace on mine and there was no tracking orr allingment problems at all just make sure that if you put the car into the garage that they dont loose the washers

i agree i had some on my punto sporting for around 6-8 months. if you go for 4x100 you can get alot of the wheels available for vw, honda etc so well worth it if you ask me

Wider selection of wheels and higher resale values. Just means you have to be more care full fitting etc, and making sure not to loose bolts/washers etc.

well guys, as i have been reading what you have wrote in the past view days i came across a set of 15" abarth wheels with rubber for £120 what you think ?

 

[blink_82uk]

hese goin to be goin on a punto?? they can look good if the car is decked, looks really good with a full abarth kit and decked other than that if its a standard car i dont think there that smart personal opinion though. what style you goin for with the car??

the problem i have at the moment is wanted a 4x98 fitment and they are hard to come buy sometimes. so as cheap as they are i bought them just for the now as i need to know how low i can go for the speed bumps in my street i was going to spend £400 to £500 on wheels but theres no point as winter is comin up. at the moment im in the proses of sanding some standard bumpers down to see what they would look like smothed with a novitec front spoiler smothed on as well

Looks pretty good, I love the looks of the mk1, best looking of all the Puntos imo.

Biggest i would say to go is 16, anything more and it looks daft.

You could also look at Bravo, Brava, Marea, punto mk2 alloys. Although some dont suit the looks of the mk1 punto.
