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

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.

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

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

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

The GTC 19" fans are hard to find they get snapped up quick.
