final decision

[JD]

right guys and girls, here it is, the final decision, that i just cant make my mind up over.

here are the two pics to wet your appetite;

option 1;

option 2;

ok, so the car is lowered 2moro and will look as above in the next wk or so thanks to middo's painting skills (thanks in adv matey).

the prob is, i cant afford both sets of wheels;

atm i have 5 X 172 rims with contisports. great wheels, great tyres. little heavy. but love the looks, love the 5 spoke, simple, flat design. and they aint in bad condition

i am also picking up turinis that i bargained off ebay on thurs. one really needs a refurb, the others will do. but they will need tyres. and turinis are so last year :quiet: but light!!!!!


sooooo


do i stay with the 172 wheels, sell the turinis on, once in better shape, and in couple 1000 miles get new contisports for the front 172 wheels? and spend the profit on beer

or

do i put the current tyres on the turinis, sell the 172 rims with no tyres, and one spare with brand new conti separate? and get new contis again in a couple 1000 miles?

all thoughts welcome!!

172 wheels mate, looks so much smarter.

 

[AlexS]

Turinis are really popular for a reason!
EDIT: Changed my mind, the 172 5 spokes look alot better, mainly because you can't get a 172 in that colour. Nautical isn't that far off mondial, and the turinis make it look like a cup.

 

[Budgie]

172 wheels look far better. Keep 'em! Beer has swayed my vote too!

 

[dutty_112]

172 wheels please

 

[Has]

[gazbenger]

[Matta_88]

[Christopher]

172 wheels by a mile on your car mate

 

[Jamie _Swales]

either way for me, both will look great when its finally lowered

 

[mini-valver]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, DONT USE THE TURINIS!!

[JD]

theres a white one down the road from me, looks mint

jamie

 

[Phoenix]

yeah but its been done before on mk ones....hehe

 

[briny182]

I'd go with the turini's, 172 wheels are nice and everything - Depends how much you want it to stand out (I've always thought the 172 wheels dont look special enough) though at this rate, they'll probably be more exclusive than turinis

should look great when its lowered anyway, judging by those photoshops

 

[Leeshez]

I say number 2
