Im going to start tinkering with the look of my fl mv6 and im going to start with some deep dish alloys. Does anyone know where is best to get hold of any or have some for sale?

Nice looking wheels and i guess not a bad price

I do like these and even cheaper but they are 17's  http://www.wheelbasealloys.com/17_Inch_Calibre_Askari_Alloy_Wheels__3650

imo 8.5j is good selection.. but 19 will leave a narrow place for tyre so you will be forced to use very low profile tyres..
 
and a pothole will easily bend those nice wheels

I hear what you say cem the 18s are dirt cheap as well and could have a bigger wall

Cem what did you need to do to get the wheels to fit your car? they look amazing.

So the extra space created with that spacer is for a reason ? To create distance from the caliper or they would foul the caliper  Sorry  just trying to understand why these are needed but i agree the wheels cem has looks superb

those wheels are 120 pcd.. anyway I need them.. And wheel to wheel distance increase 40 mm's ..
 
upto now about 5-6 months I have used omega in several speeds , long journeys .. not seen any negative issues..

Im still none the wiser  I will have to look up PCD's and what it all means , i know about spacers i had them on my mk5 cortina

does'nt spacers increase wear on bearings and suspension joints?

may.. but how fast is questionable..and nothing comes without price tag..

Know what you mean mate destroyed 3 difs in my rover until fitted jag-playing around gets costly in time and cash
