Wheels on a GT

[JE_GT]

Hey guys,

just after some opinions really.... I'm tempted to get a set of RS Cup wheels but they're a bit expensive.. however I have seen other wheels that I like..

or

Which do you think would look better on the Twingo? (theyre both 17"s)

How much you gotta spend?

 

[JE_GT]

I'm not sure yet, roughly £700 with Tyres I guess.

Out of those two... the second set IMO

 

[JE_GT]

This is what the first set look like in 16"'s on a Twingo...

pretty decent imo, but the 2nd set are quite sexy

Out of those two... the second set IMO

+1... so long as it still looks as good with four bolt holes. I take it that it's avaliable as 4x100

Although, the first ones look quite good in the pic

..

+2

Yeah they are supplied with the correct fitment for the Twingo (they say 4x100 ET35).. so you think the 5 spokers will look good? Although they take 3 weeks for delivery as they're made to order

 

[singlespeed]

They look good as 5 stud as the lines trail into the bolt holes. As a 4 stud, they may look a bit imbalanced and gash

1. Principally because that's one of the styles I'm looking at for my wind.

cant find a pic of the 4 stud version

me either lol.. maybe they just re-drill a 5 stud version, on a good note I've just ordered some Spax 40mm lowering springs

I'd love a set of comp mo5s in anthracite on a gt, although an obvious choice.

The first set look great especially on the car

That's what I thought, previously I wasn't too sure.. My GT is black though so they'll probably look the dogs bollocks.

cant find a pic of the 4 stud version

neither could I, so a quick shop of what the 4 stud may look like, depending on how the lines actualy go in real life

I think I prefer the first pic I posted actually... lol, by the way does anyone know how you remove the bonnet/roof go faster stripes...

Hairdryer & a credit card

Oh, it's as easy as just applying heat and picking it off then... Job for me tonight when I return with the car

Basicaly yes. Get a corner lifted and peel back on itself nice and slow, heating as you go...

very hot water on a cloth/sponge also works if you don't have electrics or a hair dryer. You may end up with some residual glue which can be removed with glue/tar remover and a soft cloth. You may aslo see the lines where the stickers were, untill everywhere has had a good polish and wax to get it all looking equaly clean and protected

 

[JE_GT]

Excellent, I'll be giving it a go on the weekend as I'm really not a fan of the stripes it has on it

By the way, with the wheels... Is it worth getting 17"s or are 16"s a better fitment?
