Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - DE5IRED - 3:rd-Aug-2014

Hey guys

Well as a some of you know I'm taking collection of my gtc sri this coming Saturday
And all ready I'm looking at everything I'm looking to change.

The standard wheels I'm not really over the moon about but they will do for now I urgently
Want to change them but just don't know what option to go with originally I said to myself
Just to get some of the sportier gtc wheels I've seen but then couldn't really find a great deal
About then I thought possibly some vxr wheels but kind of feel I'm begging the top boy lol

I've looked about and not really seen many that have stood out to me as of yet but
I've decided I want 19s and praying its not going to change the hadeling a great deal

Thoughts and suggestions welcome and appreciated Wink

I may be bias but here's the best wheels apart from vxr:

You should be looking between £350-£500 for a set with tyres, obviously the cheaper ones may need a refurb, they don't come up that often.

You can either have the centre covers off (like mine) or have them on like rustys.

Vxr wheels

I went from 17's to 19's and I TBH although the ride is a little rougher and you lose a few MPG I feel you get so much feedback from the road and the handling seems fine to me.

Sorry for the typo message but basically they are the sportier wheels I was talking about I can't believe the price that's not bad at all I thought they would be a lot more.

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - Rusty2009 - 3:rd-Aug-2014

they look better with proper center caps on.

They do look nice and I'm chuffed with the price I honestly would love a set of vxr wheels but 20 is abit much but I did see some reps in 18 the other dayon eBay I could swear

What do you think of the reps would be much happier than with the 20s I think as would like 19s to be the limit worse ways

I don't recommend REP wheels.

I knew someone was going to say that I would love the 20s just got a feeling it will ruin the ride going that High

I think [MENTION=18]cornishtaz[/MENTION] has 20" wheels he might be along soon.

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - DE5IRED - 3:rd-Aug-2014

Funny enough we're just messaging now and I just asked him that very question lol

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - Cameron UK - 3:rd-Aug-2014

Yeh I agree with rusty. Don't get reps. 20" tyres will cost a bit

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - cornishtaz - 3:rd-Aug-2014

20"s can be got cheaper than the 19"s due to odd tyre size on the GTC

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - DE5IRED - 3:rd-Aug-2014

I had 19s csl wheels on my 330 msport so kinda use to the tred

I'm sold on the vxr wheels just need to find a good set if anyone knows any other wheel ideas size and even after market please let me know

I would deform get 19"s fans or vxr wheels. Wouldn't bother with anything else

I know a member on here was selling their GTC 19's..

Cam was being tight and wouldn't buy them Couch

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - DE5IRED - 3:rd-Aug-2014

Loool every time I look I never can find anything and always just think it's because gtcs are still new really

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - Rusty2009 - 3:rd-Aug-2014

The GTC 19" fans are hard to find they get snapped up quick.
[MENTION=4]J1ODYA[/MENTION] still got your 19's?

Wheel options 18 19 20 what do you think ? - J1ODYA - 3:rd-Aug-2014
