What do people think of these wheels on my 106? They have come up for sale and would cost me alot less than buying new wheels and tyres, they are racelines in 15 inch running 888s. Undecided myself, I know they are light but not too keen on the way it looks, what do you think?

If your car is red, then yes, but spray them white!

I think thats probably the most important thing at the end of the day!
Anyone know how much a courier is on 4 wheels with tyres these days?

Neither will fit over my brembos, I did want 205 gti alloys before. I like the steels too, but its not much of a road car anymore, trying to modify it everyway I can to improve the handling at the moment. Im enjoying overtaking really powerful cars with minimal engine mods.

These wheels aren't available now... just somethingto be aware of if you kerb/buckle an alloy.
All the same, i like the wheels... i used to have a set on my old 2.1 Corsa.
