A lot of people slate Prima but i ordered the above alloys in 16" (more Maxi style) and got them on very the day they told me - no problems at all. I was missing one of the centre caps but they sent that out the next day to me and were fairly helpful on the phone.

This might give you some better pictures;

Do they do them in white at all?

Anyone know the prices for 16s and 17s?

What is the quality like? i was thinkin of gettin the 15 inch and then gettin my rubber of my old phase 2 on these to keep price down. Do you have any pictures you could upload of ur 16v with these on so can get a better idea???

think 16s are about 100quid, 17 are about 120quid....dont think they do them in white but id expect they do a special order or something...

Godwin, i thought quality was excellent, if i remember correctly, the wheels are actually made by Image. Im afraid i dont have these wheels anymore (sold them to Fatherted) and only have these two (dirty) pics...

Are they 16s and is it lowered at all?

Whats the addy for there site, out of interest?

 

[u33db]

those where 16s and it was lowered 35mm on the front at the time. Think theyre one of the few aftermarket wheels that suit the valver (IMO) and i only sold them because i prefered the phase 1s i have. Beware though, the spokes do come out quite far for curbs etc!

website should be http://www.primaracing.comwww.primaracing.com

Thanks, they look really nice. Just another question, would the 16" wheels as above sit under the rear arch without rubbing, just that on my valver my arch is level with the top of the 15" phase 2 rims i wouldnt want the arches rolled etc... Looks like the spokes stick out a bit from the rims. May just have to go for 15" guess it would keep cost down too.

I think itd be ok as theyre just 7" wide and with correct offset dont come too close to the outer rear arch. However, ive never seen a valver thats down that far in real life before so cant be sure. You could try PM fatherted as you might be near him - he may be able to help/meet you to give you a better idea...

Cheers, tried to PM fatherted but failed i could always look at gettin my phase 2 refurbed in gold not sure that anybody has done that on here and not sure if it would look any good. But thanks for the help anyways.
