which alloys?

[edens-xe]

just wondering how many of you out there like speedlines and how many for cav gsi rims? jus cant decide what looks best on my motor cheers fella's

[Matt GTE]

I like them both on a Nova, if money was not a consideration I'd have Speedlines over the Cav rims everytime though. I've got a set of Cav Cesaro 6 spokes on my Nova project.

[Iain]

Never been that much of a fan of the Cavvy alloys myself (although on some occasions they can look alright). Voted Speedlines if you're deciding between the two.

[Chris]

Cav GSi ones, they look sweet, probably lighter, much closer to stock fit than the speedlines and tyres are cheaper.

[stuartp]

Both!!

[baby-gal]

gsi wheels look good any colour and easyer to find and cheaper and alot stronger

[sri_boi]

speedlines.... i know there common as **** but still better than cav gsi alloys, dont you like gsi fanblades? or calibra turbo alloys? there nice! :)

[Chris]

calibra turbo alloys are 5-stud, so wont be easy to get them to fit.

Speedlines suck

[sri_boi]

hasnt jamiegsi got cally turbo alloys on his...or did?

how hard are they to fit?

[Lee]

since when was there only two styles of alloy wheel? lol

[Chris]

Yes it did, however his was converted to 5-stud.

[Jack]

Cav GSi for me. As Chris said, closer to original Vauxhall offset and cheaper/better tyres available.

I'd rather have Cesaro style wheels though.

[Dan]

yep cav wheels for me also, but then i am biased as i have three sets lol lol lol

[Big_Chap]

i have speedlines and a set of opel cavy (or vectra) ones for winter/spare

[Novadex]

if i see another set of SL im gonna eat my own teath!

The speedline is a classic and always will be, but recent trend, for a change, cheaper to buy, thanks to new/cool painting, refurb techniques the cav gsi/cally 16v slot is the in fashion one ain't it. Ide have to agree so. Diamond cut is its finest incarnation, only on super slammed novas of course. But i think its heavier than the speedline..?

[Dan]

sell me a set!!

lol nope, 3 sets = road tyres/slicks/wets

Yep they are heavy (part of the reason i run them due to personal preference) As regards the 'in' fashion, i wouldnt call it that, i have run them for 7 years now lol and a few for alot longer

Dude! if you can't make your own mind up then you shouldn't be modifying cars IMO lol

However, I would say go for the cav slabs, because they are so cheap and look as good as/occasionaly better than the Speedlines IMO

Alessio 2's are for bigger brakes and nothing else - when you have no choice IMO!

[dannyb]

What sort of weight are the slabs with tyres? I prefer the slabs, but if you can afford them, go with the speedlines if they are lighter.
