Any black alloy's suitable?

[Gregvet]

I have a watercooled T25 which i want to get lowered and give black alloys.

Can anyone suggest some suitable black alloy wheels, new or old? Any mods required to allow proper fitting would be cool too

Thanks

OK specifically i have found these ones:

Any good? Would they need spacers to fit properly? Is 17" too big?

Thanks for any help guys

Mate just get any set of alloys and sand them off undercoat and rattle can them with gloss or silk, you can get a cheap set of load rated alloys from eBay, bore them out get longer studs and spacers (to the correct offset) and fit them up. It's easier than it sounds. I got a set for sale on the bay at the moment

as said get any wheels that fit and paint them or get them painted.

I bought Merc ML wheels, had the blasted and painted ..... have a look here https://club8090.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=100971" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The fronts are now fitted with 15 mm spacers not the 25 mm that the pics where taken with, so the now sit just inside the arches.

Hi Pionte

What size tyre have you fitted to your ML wheels?
Thanks
