Alloy wheel ideas?

Post by Dan18 »

Hi all,

i have recently bought a 2011 red fiesta edge i have done a few mods like:
zs spoiler, tints, wind deflectors, dmb gel overlays and xenon upgrade.

Next i would like to upgrade my alloys as they are the standard 15".

I was looking at getting the 17" street pack alloys but i have seen alot of bad reviews about them can anyone tell me if they are worth getting and is the reputation that bad?

Also would anyone be able to give me ideas or suggestions on any alloys to get? i would like gloss black as im going for a red and black theme

The spoiler does make quite a big difference to the appearance, im slowly buying all the zs kit but will be a while till it is complete. Yeah thats true there is alot of them in my area too, where did you buy then from?

What bad reviews have you heard about the standard 17"'s? i quite like the look of them, considering purchasing some Team Dynamics 17" graphite Imola''s, look sweeeet on panther black with the colour coded diffuser and front grill, kinda copying Ben but gotta get your inspiration from somewhere ay ;)

Bad reviews are that they buckle very easily, 3 out of 4 buckled when I had mine.

I love the standard 17"s they suit the car so well, but they arent exactly cheap to keep replacing. Thinking about getting multi spoke team dynamics or wolfrace or a 5 twin spoke kind of design like on the limited edition corsas

The standard ones look good but buckle really easily
