Don't think deep dishes will look too good on the Ibiza. If I were to buy some m ore wheels I'd go for either Speedline Chronos or OZ Supaleggras, both are quite common but look quality.

Deep dish wheels suit the Ibiza perfectly IMO :)

I agree though, your two other choices look stunning on the MK3.

Hmmmm.....nice wheels....but the last set i bought were £600....sold them for £325 so I don't wanna spend much...plus kerbing a set of that much is a killer... lol

Seen some 17" Wolfrace Rial Alloy Wheels. - Monte Carlo's....nice but expensive.

Can you guys recommend any good websites to look at???

Those are lovely, pretty much the kinda wheel i'm after for mine.

Wouldnt 18's be a problem fitting and killin 0-60 tho?

Ive spoken to a performance shop near me that my friend owns and he rekons that 18's will fit and should still be able to lower it about 35 - 45 mm. As long as I get the right ofset etc... and I dont go for a tyre to wide the they'll fit so I'm told.

As with the acceleration I think it might kill a bit too much speed thats why I'm not sure.

Those wheels are by an american company called axis, the only uk importer that I've found is Gap security and I think that they're pretty expensive check out the website though there's alot of nice wheels on there.

I'd rather do a search on here than talk to a performance shop. There's nothing like experience, and there's more experience on mk3's here than anywhere else :yes:

You'll not be able to run much camber on an 18" wheel.

Not sure on those wheels mate, theyre quite nice but not quite doin it for me!

I'll be interested to see what wheels you get coz you got the same colour cupra to me, and i want a set of wheels soon.


Good luck with the hunt.


And try rochford tyres as someone suggested above.

Not to sure on those wheels, in 17s they will look diddy. Ideally i think spokes which go right to the edge and are flat, angular suit the ibiza the best.

try rochford, i got mine from there website, loads of wheels to choose from and good customer service to!
