alloy

just noticed there is a kit to do this yourself on ebay, anybody know if this is worth the money or are you best off just leaving it and getting it done properly?

Right then, today started with a lad and his Corsa and correcting some paint fade (like the blue one I posted the other day). Afterwards, I was bored. Luckily, mother (or step dad), have tidied down the side of the shed, so I could now get access to the back, and dig out an old alloy...

hi guys I am looking at putting a set of seat leon alloys on my ibiza they hvae an offset of 55 and the tyres on them are 16/205/55 are these tyres going to be too big to fit in my arches? has anybody put a set of leon rims on their ibiza?

Hi guy's bought some S3 alloys for my leon cupra and having them refurbed. Can't make up my mind what colour to have them. It's on a yellow cupra, was thinking black would look good but they are silver and looked good also. Other than that i thought a metalic grey? Any opinions?:confused:

hi guys i have here a lovely set of wheels but when fitting the centre bore on the wheels is bigger than the car. they still bolt on but is this dangerous thanks

right looking to get my alloys refurbed in a different colour....looking to go darker as the car is currently luna grey/silver and the wheels are very similar in colour....i think a darker alloys may make the car stand out more...what you reckon? currently Anthracite...

I had nothing better to do today, so I decided to have a crack at my alloys. They were filthy. I don't think the rear of the wheels have ever been cleaned. Spent ages trying to find the right stuff to get the tar off. I had some old AG wheel cleaner which was the best The wheels...

Want to change mine so would like to see what choices there is so... post pics please of your alloys :D Cheers Leigh

I need to get a set of 16" alloys or the likes to put on the Leon for over the winter months. The OE 18"s aren't the best in the snow. Where would be the best place for me to pick these up, had a look on eBay and the liks but no joy. cheers

My wheels are off for refurb, want to order new ones Was gonna get these, but dont know what size I need and cant measure them as I dont have the wheels :(...

Hi, I just gave my car a quick wash (i am at work but i was using it to move some guests so washed it for good apperances) and as i rinsed it with just a normal hose with my finger over the end (i dont have a power washer) i noticed some of the paint on the front drivers allow had flaked off...

Is there a website anywhere where alloys wheel weights are published ? There is a site like this for mountainbike parts, (weightweenies) but I find alloys are sold by so many distributors yet they publish so little info. "Light Alloy Wheels" are supposed to be light, yet no one gives the...

Gallardo alloys Hey was wondering from the guys who have previously bought were they got them from and their thoughts. Defo getting a set but cant find heaps about other than fleabay and not sure if they are any good. Kerbed alloy thismorning (DAMN snow) and reckon its time for mods to start...

Hi all, I need advice please. I want to buy an inexpensive set of 17" alloys to go on my 2.0 TDI Sport DSG. It would be a spare set with winter tyres on, that I would swap on and off with the OEM 17s that have summer tyres on. Obviously I want to get the correct offset and everything...

I managed to hit a kerb at under 5mph in the damned snow on a right turn and whacked my front drivers side alloy into the kerb. The result is a small chunk across the outer diameter of the wheel missing. A local Seat dealer cheerfully informed me that a replacement will be £220 incl. VAT. For...

After having an unplanned meeting with a kerb today I find myself in need of a replacement alloy. It is a standard 17" 'Alhioth' alloy wheel, as fitted to 2008 FR's. The dealer is quoting £228 for one wheel! So has anyone got a spare one, perhaps after changing? I'm after as new perfect as...
