quality comes at a price


Agree. Would never buy cheap wheels, spent a fortune on Racing Hart's and they quality was sublime.


But would you spend £1200+ on wheels for a corsa

But i get where your coming from mate and if i had a car worth spending £1.3k on wheels on then id get proper ones but for now i think these will do the job


Your right mate, probably good value was really saying that expensive wheels are expensive for a reason as (most) are bloody good quality, strong and light

Aye totally get you but these would be show wheels for my new corsa, couldnt give a fuck if they weighed 20tons and as long as they can withstand the odd stone in the road they should be fine

When its on the track it will be running lightweight 16s.
