thare of a vauxhall (spit spit) but they look very nice with rubber bands for tyres. i had these on a mk2 i was playing with a few years ago.

Yep, might get them and spray them with a burbury pattern, then flog em down my local Macdonalds carpark to the corsa boys.. Innitt!!!!

I know this is slightly off topic, but my mate has got a fiesta zetec, and even i know the ford stud pattern is 4x108 and ive never owned one! He asked me the other day to sell him my rh classic wheels, cos he likes the deep dish on them, and when i said they wouldnt fit, he was like 'why' so i explained the situation. The bit that gets me, is that he went into a shop and bought some wheels about 5 months ago… he didnt even know if they would fit    Just pure chance that theyre a common pattern really lmao.

But they are ugly wheels!  :wink:

well im a wheel whore……….i have more sets of rims than cars :wink:  some people are just blind to the fact that cars are so different! they usually drive accident damaged motors though

Reminds of the other day, was at sainsburys stocking upon veggie oil, parked next to a newish Range rover, woman driver stoppped me and said, I've got these windscreen wipers from in the store (they were sainsbur's own brand of universal 13" wipers) could you help me get them on my car..

well i didnt know what to say, so i had to be blunt and told her to go to the main dealers and buy the right ones.. Her response was similar, why are these different then!!!!

if i can i'll dig out some pics of the mk2. they do look ok honest i got a lot of nice comments on them from the mk2 boys. never told them what they were of though.

To be fair to you mate, take the centre caps off and they are very similar to those fitted to later cabs, think were they estorils??

I'll probably get my head chewed off for saying that tho….

shhhhh keep it quite don't want people to think i agree. as for the centre caps you fill them in with normally filler and repaint.

ive thought a few times about picking a cheap set of those wheels up, look V similar to estorils..

I like them, the LOOK of them not the car they were intended for

as i say id have them if i could get them but there to far away.

that's what i was thinking. very very similar to corrado alloys. certaimly would not knock them because they used to be on a vauxhall. don't like them enough to buy them though.

i figured they were cheap as chips for someone local if they were round here i'd go and get them.

i thought that was my car in the background then novocaine  8O

as said above, these look just like estorils, apart from the estorils have grooves at the ends of the spokes

 but Estorils look nice on a VW Corrado…… sorry, but there are parts worth robbing off other marks of car………but that aint one of them, if your gonna have factory made wheels then have VW ones surely?

each to there own then. just thought i'd see what people think. some people like some dont thats about right.

nar that motor in the background is mine. but i see what you mean just wish mine looked as tidy as yours right now. it will soon though
