I will do this to prove a point and to Back Ian up and prove your wrong and he was rite, but this is crazy. I still dont even get why the accussations!

3 pics,

1 proof of purchase of the Varta battery I posted of, and of LEDs for the corsa which BTW don't work properly! eg flicker, etc.

2 wheels I am watching or have watched on ebay, I cant obviously go back in tiem and watch things that have ended can I?

3 Purchase history, which includes front bumper, without splitter! the tow eye, corsa mats! and Fog LEDS which BTW are for sale now as I got whiter ones!

You asked for opinions, some people have gone over the top, but the general answer is not to. Whether you do or not, is up to you now


I know but now I'm not sure whos advice opinion were real or not.


Basically anyone who said buy these wheels are trolling you.

My advice is real. Google it if you're not sure.

Ok thankx, I will leave them then. But I do like diamond cut as they look bigger, OEM corsa wheels just don't do it for me, only black edition or those which aren't 4 stud.

Ill carry on looking and my budget is max 250. Reason being ive spent a bit on the car and being prefacelift don't wish to spend too much, that and as I have car troubles heating etc, dont want to spend money on a car that has problems.

thankx

I wanted them, the ones that were £99? they had a bid and I think they opted out last minute hense didn't sell, But I did message him and Id even pay more to have them delivered, but he didn't reply. There the only OEMs I actually like.

I know, I was going to add more and sell old wheels, also was going to add money from old bumper but its damaged quite abit so don't look as if Il get much for it now.

I'm not the only one who drives the car so it probably get curbed anyways, lol.

Also if I ended up getting nice rims will probably spend on more mods, but this is more family car.

I'd still go for OE over aftermarket, and you'll need tyres.

Plenty locally, just not this minute.

First thing I usually do when I get a new car is chuck on some smaller wheels. Why are wheels that look bigger meant to be better? I may have thought that during the Max Power days but times have changed!

I suggest if there's nothing in budget to save up a little more. I got brand new Speedlines with tyres for £450. You can always take them off and sell them again before selling the car if you're worried about spending too much on your current car.

The only wheels that look nice on a Corsa D are the Rotiform, Lenso, Whistler ones worth a fuck load without the added cost of tyres

All concept cars have massive wheels for a reason. It looks better. More aesthetically pleasing to the masses.

Not everyones concerned with lap times and unsprung weight. They just don't want milk bottle tops on their leased 335d or evoque.

Thankx for the offer, can rims be sprayed like by any one? I know how to spray but what type of pain is required? Id probably end up spraying them chrome, lol.

I am too far from you (west sussex) and not going N'hampton any time soon. sorry

Posting randomly looks like you're upping your post count. Usually people do this so they can post in the classifieds. Unsure what your motive is. Maybe you're iust a complete nutter?

lol, I have nothing to sell here, id rather ebay it anyways.

but yeh I remember those days, like 20 years ago, posts to get status, never to sell things though!

and actually I felt it was nicer to posts randomly rather than just come here for help, that's the truth, now you look bad, lol.
