What do you think of these wheels

[Daipac]

Already thinking ahead to changing the wheels on my new 172, the standard rims just dont do it justice !

Been thinking of these in CHROME :

Or these :

OPINIONS ?

Anybody know a good website for deals on alloys ?

Cheers,

D

********* EDIT *********

The top ones come in these sizes :


6x14
7x15
7x16
7x17
The bottom ones come in these sizes :


7.5x16
7.5x17
8x18
7.5" will not fit ??????

Just checked the TOORA website, http://www.toora.it/ing/index.htmwww.toora.it/ing/index.htm.

watch out for the offset on toora wheels as they are 7.5" wide

 

[telford_mike]

Nice - bling bling! Demon Tweeks are good - you need to ring them up though.

 

[Moby]

think I prefer the bottom ones, would need to see them photoshoped onto a car first tho.

 

[Ali]

Bottom 1s are well nice!!! I was considering getting them.

 

[JillyB]

bottom ones as the top are very ummm popular (coming from someone with Dare V2s)

I went for these 17" Beauties. Really happy with them. Got them from R-tech last Saturday at a wicked price! Think they are looking good too. Sorry about sh*t picture but you get the ideahttp://www.boltlightning.co.uk/lemanstrip/images/NewBanner.jpg

 

[Daipac]

George, they are very nice, what make and model are they ?

I have been looking around and I fancy the MM HT3 in Carbon, will they look good on a Monaco Blue 172 ?

Anybody any good at photoshopping want to put these on a MKII Monaco Blue 172 for me to see what they will look like ?

Cheers,

OOOoooo what are those 2nd tooras called?

 

[Daipac]

Bubbles, they are Toora T670s, unfortunately they only come in 7.5" and 8" sizes, so they wont fit I have been told.

 

[Bubbles]

gah

 

[McBunny]

they will fit with the correct offset or they will just take chunks out of your arch well they did on mine lol

 

[Bubbles]

I like those T670s.. although i bet there expensive..

Im loving http://www.rochfordtyres.co.uk/product.asp?P_ID=254these at the moment.. and look at that price for 17s with tyres!

 

[Daipac]

Bubbles, I saw on another thread that you liked them, they do look very good I have to admit. What is even better is that you can take the 17" tyres out of the deal and save £180 so that you can buy good tyres then so you could get them for £365 without the cheapy tyres then ! Now that seems a very good deal indeed !

I am going to stick to 7" wheels I think as I have been told they will rub if you go any bigger.

I really want to see what those Carbon HT3s look like on my car, if I take the car to Demon Tweeks or somewhere like that, will they put the wheels on the car for me to see them ? Anybody done this ?

 

[Bubbles]

Wow.. that IS very good.. id like to keep my 16s and put slicks on them for trackdays/quarter miling.. or i might sell my 16s and get some 15s with slicks...

 

[McBunny]

they should do yeah

365 crikey that ssheep for toor wheels mine were about 750 with tyres lol

 

[Daipac]

dogmaul, the £365 is for the Katana wheels shown below WITHOUT tyres, still a good price tho !

http://www.rochfordtyres.co.uk/uploads/images_products/254.jpg

Bubbles, the Toora T670s are around £800 with tyres, not really that bad for good wheels.

 

[Bubbles]

True.. but dont really have £800 to play around with!

[McBunny]

toora wheels are imported by racetech i bought my car from one of their sub companys venga racetech wouldnt ask them for advice as they fitted the wrong offset on mine and assured me it was right

 

[Daipac]

dogmaul, cant you take it up with them and ask them to sort it as they are in the wrong for selling you the wrong product !

Bubbles, they dont fit anyway so that makes up your mind even more ! LOL !



Levo ! That is class ! Thanks for that ! Gives me an idea of what they would look like ! Shame about the lexus lights tho ! LOL !

Thanks again ! Hmmmmmmm, need to see these wheels on the car in the flesh so to speak !

 

[McBunny]

So they might fit a V6 then?
