Lukus 9N Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Ok, so I indeed do have a Lupo now, my first car, via my fathers work.1.4 16V, little beast.Bog standard, all through standard. Now, I'm updating the gaitor and gearstick, and you may have heard.Now, the wheels.Without lowering or any other kind of modification, will 15" alloys fit? But also.. 5-spoke? My car is white, as I asked.. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> But, white alloys, or black? What would you say?

Swoxy Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Welcome to Club Lupo. 15"s will fit without any problems. I reckon white wheels would look awesome on a white car ... border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a quick Google, and found some very nice spokers.http://www.topgear.co.uk/acatalog/Grid_White_Alloys.htmlBut I think I might go for the more double spokes.http://www.topgear.co.uk/acatalog/Torque_White_Alloys.htmlBut these.. well, I think I'll go for these in the end..http://www.topgear.co.uk/acatalog/Subzero_White_Alloys.htmlBut what do you think?Anyone wanna photoshop the SubZero's onto that white lupo above?

Adam Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I think black wheels would look better to be honest, im a fan of Speedlines and those Compomotives shown above. As far as whether you will need new tyres are not, look at it this way, would your kiddy bicycle tyres fit your grown up bike wheels....?Im a big fan of these wheels if you are going for that motorsporty look: border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dblock Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 i think lupos should be smooth low and dubstyle, where as arosa's should look more motorsport. Not maxpower though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mills787 Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 how about some Borbet As, could look cool in white. nice simple deep dish design would look good on a low white loop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
