allys for furio

[m67]

hey just bought a black furio for my first car and am currently looking at some wheels, ive seen a few i like here but dont know the name of them. also could i get away with 16" lowered 50mm on a furio?

heres some pics which i like, if u could tell me the names of them that would be great

my favourate out of the 3...


slightly different - these are matrix torque's as far as i know



few more spokes here


thanks

im interested with this also, cos i have a furio, i also want 16s, and i also want it dropped 50mm.

Top ones are BK Racing 238's here or here
Bottom one's are Dare X1's here

Yup the middle one's do look like torque's here

You can get away with it, but you will need 40 profile tyres and may need to do archmods...

Just to worn you those BK racing wheels need spacers to fit a furio and they cost an extra £50 for the set from BK racing themselves... I personally would go for the Dare X1's

Hope that helps

thanks alot alex, thats a great help, im not sure which ill go for i like them all to be honest, but theres a black vtr which is about 5 miles from me and has white multispoke wheels, and i guess that could be quite similar to the 3rd set.

theres just something i like about the first 2 and i cant decide which to go for, will having spacers lead to any problems?

forgot to say, which would look better?

15"s lowered 50mm
16"s lowered 45mm

btw would the lowering kit on here work?

i can never get my head round websites with use '>' to tell which models it will work on.

thanks

Although i ended up buying 15s i think 16s 'look' better.. although 15s are meant to be better for handling and acceleration.. Although technically the larger the rims the more you should lower the car.. as the extra radius raises the car...

Having spacers isn't a 'problem' it is just an extra cost that people often forget to consider! If you end up buying 20mm or larger spacers you have to buy hubcentric ones which are about £150-200 otherwise your wheels may wobble... so i would recommend getting alloys with a similar offset to a saxo.. so ET15-25 so the largest spacers you would need would be 10mm.

If you lower your car more than 40/50mm it is recommended you buy a FULL suspension kit which will set you back the best part of £200... not fitted..

So if you lower it less than that you can just buy springs (like the link you gave) and use the standard shocks... i would recommend you order from somewhere like r tec, motorworld or top gear or have a look on ebay even... but im sure you can get them cheaper than that!

If you want to know about arch mods read these guides which are very helpful:
