From Borbet A to steel wheels

[David Ramsey]

Sold the Borbets so I decided to put my spare wheels on until I decide what I want. Personally I think it looks OK, needs wheel trims to finish it off though, any suggestions? I've had spinning wheel trims before so I fancy a change.

No wheel trims, just get some back to black on them, i think it looks fairly cool

 

[david hodson]

I love these for the euro look

Looks good as is, wouldn't bother with trims imo.

 

[Chris J]

Colour code the lip or the face, either would look pretty cool.

 

[David Ramsey]

I've bought some grey paint from a VW but I don't know if I want them painting any more, I quite like the look how it is.

get em banded

 

[Chris205]

paint each centre a different colour

 

[jesus]

Don't put wheel trims on that!

 

[David Ramsey]

Not even some alloy wheel look ones? lol

 

[Charlie.]

centers yellow fo sho

 

[Ash87]

i'd leave them like tht if there only temp.

Steels look s**t. Done.

Spinning trims are comedy though Get them again.

FFS! DONT, JUST DONT!!!

 

[memsp1]

get them static balanced to get rid of the weights on the outside, and just keep them as is, they look better than a cheap set of alloys

 

[David Ramsey]

I think i might leave it as it is. Got 4 brand new Yokohama Parada tyres on them too so they'll be fine for a while yet

 

[Jason_E]

Really hope your joking about trims. Borbet A's ftw.

 

[YorkshireDaz]

Nice!! What vehicle would these have originally come off?

I quite fancy a set for when i get my wheels refurbished.

[Dip]

Steffans BCW with some nice stretched rubber?

 

[David Ramsey]

Bought them off a scenic but the tyres were 65 profile so I binned them and bought some 50 profile

 

[.GAZ.]

Keepin it then?

 

[David Ramsey]

I don't mind either way to be honest, happy to keep it but it'll always be for sale at the right price

 

[whatisjustis]

What's the width of them, are they really skinny?

If anything, give em a fresh coat of satin black and colour code the wheel bolts to the car.

 

[cat171]

I don't get it :S It looked ace on the borbet's, it looks odd on the steels now. Alloys needed imo.

 

[H12EAY]

Always see this about i love it!

 

[chouda]

[Winston]

[Baz-ESD]

[BIFCAIDS]

[jamie rigby]

[jamie rigby]

[Alex_X93]

Steels are perfect winter wheels! like em with the scarab paint more subtle imo.

 

[Rob_bennett]

a bit off topic but could you post a pic of it with the borbets as i could be tempted by some for my car.
