Alloy help

[Barraclough]

Just need a bit of help with picking alloys now I'm finally choosing to buy some. The wheels on my car are currently 13". Can only seem to find 14/15" in my price range. Will it be ok putting them on and would I need thinner tyres or something?

Yes 15s look best and get 185 50 or similer tyres

[Barraclough]

Cheers, hoping to get a half decent set for under £150

Scrap yard would be your best shot you could even get a set with good tyres for cheap

Hi there have ya tried gumtree as well

[Barraclough]

Had a quick look but non local, same on eBay most are local collection and to far for what it's worth. Gonna check a few scrap yards next week and see what's on offer.

[andy w]

Your kidding that's pants lol there are a few this way but it depends if ya want travel a small distance to collect them

[Barraclough]

Where's that

[andy w]

Stoke-on-Trent. Also try putting Cheshire and Staffordshire in your gumtree search bar

There's some polished black alloys listed on Gumtree and they're in Lancashire. The seller could be near Manchester so might be worth a try? I'm tempted myself as my Corsa B SXi alloys are scuffed to fook (courtesy of the previous owner ).

These alloys are located in Darwen (not my cup of tea to be honest):

They ain't to bad except for the red parts lol why don't ya referb your wheels instead

[johnny]

The black vaux alloys would look mint i think, sxi wheels are too small imo should get 15s

[johnny]

them fox alloys with the red stripe look like the ones i have and they scrape like a f**k because the offset is way off

[Barraclough]

What do you guys think of these for £100? Might be going to collect tomorrow
