Which Wheels For My 182 ??

[Ste King 182]

Undecided on which wheels to get / keep on my silver 182 (geting lowerd 40mm soon). its either : 182 cup wheels ( i have them on now ) or get GT3 16 x 7" Black with polished lip alloys. Both pics below : ( open to other suggestions + cud any 1 photoshop the gt3's in? )

I'd stick with the 182 cup wheels, given those two choices

smart them mate how much they set u back?

 

[oliver.james]

They're about £500, then tyres on top.

But, being 15" the tyres are cheap!

nice looking wheels!

what would 15" wheels and lowerd 40mm sit like with the arches im after a little gap all round, or am i better of getin 16" wheels with 40mm drop to get that small gap ?? thanks.

You would probably be better off with 16's for a 40mm drop. If you get 15's you might want to think about coilovers? All depends how much gap you like!

 

[Ste King 182]

smallest gap possible but no tire tucking, i can only afford springs for now which are a 40mm drop all round so looks lyk 16s will b better for now untill the coils come .

 

[LowLife.]

Get the springs, stick with your standard 16's for now, then when you have the dollar for coilovers you can get 15's. That is what I did


Oh and I bought Apex springs for mine, they were a little crashy but the drop was good for the money

Hope this helps!
