AlessioII's - The Myth??

[Pan@SW-CC]

Whats the story with the AlessioII's and new brake pads then? Coz I've been offered a set of mint ones for a price I canny turn down...only prob is I've just bought new pads!! :x (I'll get shot if I hae too though!)

[Anton]

I am after some badly, new or s/hand.

Anyone know of any going?

[Ste_Nova]

just bend the metal clip back

[Pan@SW-CC]

Thnks guys...I would'nt let some pesky brakes hold me back (get it :lol: ) anyway!

They will be mine...oh yes...they WILL be mine....muhahahahah! :twisted:

[Anton]

what are you paying for them mate?

[Ben (lurk75)]

They are more common than the standard GSi wheels now!

[Anton]

They are more common than the standard GSi wheels now!

wish i could find some then!

[Jim]

They are more common than the standard GSi wheels now!

but they look a lot better :) Theres not many wheels that suit and fit the Nova as well as the Alessio's.

Compomotive MO2's.

The best!

[Ric 16v]

wouldn't mind some but as ben says there VERY VERY common, alot of people say it's got to be 17's or bigger these days, speedline allesio 2's are FOOKIN RIP OFF brand new, you can get 17's miles cheaper than allesio 2's now think there getting a bit dated now !!!

[Ben (lurk75)]

Very true. but most 16" packages are the same price or dearer than 17"s due to the tyres not being so common and costing more.

[Ste_Nova]

i don't care what peeps say it's got to be.... i'm fitting 15"s and they can fuck off

[Fester]

i love the handling on mine with 15s, i dont they look 'small' on novas anyway, newer cars have massive caves behind the wheels to fill but they suit the nova fine

[Ben (lurk75)]

15"s are by far the best size for lowered cars, handling, expense, looks.

Thats why i got them! :lol:

[mikeoxford]

you can afford to get through more tyres if u use 15s ;)

[krobinson]

You cant beat speedlines on GSI/GTE novas, they totaly transform them and in my opinion no other wheel has the same effect!

Softstars also look good, but dont come close..

[?Marty?]

There's no such thing as 'the best (this is not a quote. And it refers to all the 'you can't beat'...'the nicest' comments.') wheel.

[Stuart]

i dissagree, if you had a square and round wheel then obviously the round one is the best lol

unless its on a surface with lots of speedbumps next to each other.

i saw that on how2 years ago lol

[krobinson]

why did u quote 'the best' wheel when i didnt say that? :roll:

[carzone_corsa]

well in my personal oppinion they are the nicest wheel for the nova and corsa. Good lines, nice shape, not too common (unlike your normal kahn or oz wheels that are at every cruise), and they fit 100%. They are a good size, 16" is the best overall size anyway, as 17s can look a bit OTT on some cars, they also keep the rolling radius as near to standard as you can get, so spot on handling.

If a wheel is popular, it proves they are good :wink:

I've just bought a set for my car, 2nd hand i paid 150 quid because the bloke didnt really know what they were worth and he just wanted rid of them with tyres! lol :lol:

[Ric 16v]

well in my personal oppinion they are the nicest wheel for the nova and corsa. Good lines, nice shape, not too common (unlike your normal kahn or oz wheels that are at every cruise) not to common - virtually everyone has them !!!!!!! :o :o :o :o far too common if u ask me

[Pan@SW-CC]

that seems to be a remark made by those that dont have them...I'd say they arent on that many Novas. Just the ones that attend lots of shows.

Why dont you count the amount of cars on the cars pages that have them, compared to other wheels 8)

[techie]

I think I could mention some better looking wheels, and much much cheaper...... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Jus kidding.

i don't care what peeps say it's got to be.... i'm fitting 15"s and they can fcuk off

I think 15s r fine, 16s the biggest id go for. The only thing id prob do to my car is lower it. (I have 15s)

[Ian]

16s fine with no kit on anything bigger looks stupid, but if you put 16s on with a bodykit they look too small

[techie]

Im sticking with my 15's, -60mm drop, poly bushes + bump stops and a strut brace.

That and the modded engine and im going track :)

Oh and the small matter of V6 calipers and discs...... :!:
