Bulldawg GT Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I like these wheels. I think would look pimp on a black or silver car that was lowered. I don't think they would look as good with other colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBT Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 hey let's not play the senior card just yet... I'm still 20-something......in my mind. And yes, I'm old enough to have driven that particular model and all of it's original stablemates as new cars.

Billy Dagwood Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Hey guys, relax. I'm not buyin them or anything. I'm not really sure what I'll get, if I ever actually get around to getting anything. I have had my eye on the ultraleggeras, but I'm having second thoughts. I want something lighter than stock, reasonably cheap, and visually very different from the stockers (because I'd probably want to use those in the snow). I am not so much one for colors, either, because I think it's hard to find some that really match the ABP. Plus I don't want anything too flashy. Just for the sake of asking (and yes I know there are a zillion wheel/tire threads) .. recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGT Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I like it too - the Mini Cooper has an optional 'alloy patina' dash that looks like turned metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 ^ Schweeeet!

Scooter Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I like it too - the Mini Cooper has an optional 'alloy patina' dash that looks like turned metal. What's this?? A MOD blatently condoning - and participating in - a vicious thread hijack??? We're talking wheels here, folks! As for you, Dagwood, I say go for the Ultraleggera's! Although I admit I only say that because I'm really unsure about them myself, and I want to see them on lots more cars so I can make up my own mind! Very selfish, I know. Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"relatively cheap" depends on the budget. but for good looking lightweight wheels, you cannot go wrong with SSRs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
