Right i am sat in work and can't decide what wheels to get for my GSI. I really want Softstars but loads of people gotr them and i don't really want to be a sheep and follow.

I have two wheels in mind as well as softstars but can't decide. Should i just go for the softstars becaiuse i know they look good and bollox to what bad comments people say as its my car or what?

there are what i have in mind



Comments, advice all is welcome

OX WRC's look the tits on red cars, saw a set on a red 206 and it just looked flawless.

well i would ask for a Photoshop of the wheels in that case!!
Iain M you dont want Softstars becos their "common" imo OZ Racing aren't bespoke. sure their not seen everyday but the reason i went for Gamma's on my Corsa was because i wanted something from Irmscher but something individual.
no one else has got my wheels on here (that i've seen already) ive recieved some negative comments about them but i love them (photos dont do justice) and happier with them cos they fitted my "spec" i could have gone for Spectra, Twin Spoke or even Signa but i wanted individuallity.

all depends what you want

Stavs - i would but there is a problem, they do the wheel in a 16" but its not diamond cut face its just like a normal Alloy wheel finish. the diamond cut finish is in 17's only.

PDwhelan, i am working but on CS as well. i can multitask

K3 VMU yes i have considered morretes as well. How much you selling for and do they come with all four lights in?

Fonz i have got a request for photoshop but nobody has done it yet.
i don't understand this bit
"imo OZ Racing aren't bespoke. sure their not seen everyday" do you mean not many corsa's have them on? hence they are a wheel that is different

yes that is what i mean, not many Corsa's do wear them but it is seen. all depends how original you want to be. OZ Racing wheels are imo but hard to get looking "right" and why i think their not common
