What Do Ya Think Of These Wheels?

[JamesA]

Lo folks, just found these wheels on eBay. Linky

Anyone know this make? Stud size looks wrong but ive messaged em about that. Price is about right for me so very tempted unless anyone knows of a better deal at similar price.

Cheers!

I dont like them TBH mate, too many spokes!

You can get Gen 7 alloys for cheap, and yes I know they corrode but for hardly any money at all, there a decent option.

Yeah, they look ok! I personally quite like 7 spokes, but thats the problem, alloys are always going to be nothing more than personal taste. Price seems reasonable, but its going to be uber-budget ditch-finder tyres you get on there. Dotz are a well known make, definately, but I have no idea of the reputation I'm afraid.

You'll want 5x100 pcd, 38 off-set, not the 4x100 they've listed (unless its for a very old celica, but even then I think its 4x112).

You any good with Photoshop? Take a snap of the car, and paste them on, see what you think!

Ta for those links Red, hadnt seen them. Found a couple more now i refined my search a bit more. The MVK (middle link) ones look good and not to far away from me!

Will be sure and post some new pics whatever i decide to get :)

Personally id go for Speedline, OZ or enkei for Celicas got the best selection of wheels that suit... just gotta get some speedlines now then ill have them all

Yeah i think there a bit ugly TBH , but its a personnal choice so pick alloys you like .

s'where i got mine from. Price was good, but the service was a little rubbish.

About 12 phone calls, and 4 weeks before everything I ordered was finally delivered (everything being wheels & tyres, spiggots, and a set of locking nuts), and at the time, driving around on 2 quite badly buckled wheels, I was getting quite annoyed with them.

Remember the format of the site as well, you'll find it pops up a lot while you're searching for wheels... Almost as if its the same company running under a million different URLs!

Well thats part of the problem...

Phone Call #1 "Hi - I'd like to order these wheels and tyres! How long will it take for them to arrive?" "Oh, they are in stock, should be with you in a couple of days"

Phone Call #2 "Hi - I ordered some alloys from you nearly 2 weeks ago - they still haven't arrived..." "Oh yeah, they weren't in stock then. They are now. They'll be with you in a few days!" "But you sai..." "Bye!"

Phone Call #3 "Hi - I ordered some alloys from you nearly 3 weeks ago..."

And so it went on for over 3 weeks. Once they were sent, they forget to send the spiggots and the lockers. Spiggots came a couple of days later after 2 phone calls, and promises of 'Same Day Delivery'. Lockers came another couple of weeks later after even more phone calls and similar empty promises.

Rubbish.

Hmm some nice wheels on their site and some good deals, im a little put off by the bad experiance tho. I'll carry on looking for a bit while i get some other stuff sorted out anyway. Won a spoiler off a GT4 on eBay last night for a tenner lol, so going to get that fitted when she goes in for some other minor bodywork shortly. Should have my TRD filter in a couple of weeks too :D
