So I'm after some new wheels for the cav:

...but having a major inspiration fail. I want 16", white or silver (maybe black), preferably multispoke. At the moment I'm liking these Rota Torque replicas:

but not overly keen on the massive lip on them.

Any other ideas for wheels that would look good?

Why is it so hard to find some nice wheels lol

I was hoping to have some prior to National Weekend as the cesaros have a naff tyre on the front which is just about on the limit so not really sure if its good enough to do another 500-odd miles. Didn't really want to put a pair of tyres onto some wheels that would be coming off soon but looks like I'll have to at this rate :mad:

rota cups 8x16 euro look :)

Jack
16-05-11, 08:00 PM
The cups aren't quite what I'm looking for, I don't think they'd suit the car too well

antera 143's

Have a word! lol


[edit] These ones that David had on there are pretty much what I'm looking for. I think they suit it rather well :)

I'd love a set of Azevs on it, but they're way over budget. I'm looking at cheap wheels, hence Torque replicas and not the real thing :d

The technomags are nice too but I don't fancy having to shell out £3-400 to retyre them every year or so, and 18" is too big for the car.

Bazil you really do suck at wheels, those ones are minging too lol

Are they 16"? Can't see the tyre size in the pic.

Why go on a budget? Go wild with some BBS RS 16", Schmidt TH's or something like that :d

Jack

Why go on a budget?
Because I have no money and even if I did, it would get spent on the Celica instead lol

Needs spacing out on the back IMO as they sit a little too far inboard, but otherwise looking rather nice.
