MX5Ireland

Gents,

I've had this thought that when I was going to treat my mk1 to new bigger sexier rims, i'd go gold.
Reason being is pics were posted here (of 5's from japan i think) and black one like mine had gold alloys and it looked sweet. It was different from standard allot or even chrome finish and with my tan hood it could make my car stand out!

I'm looking for 16"s.
So, i've searched online.........and all i've came up with are the usual scooby rims............ - I'm not going to do that to my 5!

so, can anyone point me in the right direction.
Tyres no hassles - i have that covered.......just need to source new gold wheel in a very nice styleeeeeeee.

Thanks

Hows about these?

Rota rb's, website for rota here http://www.rotawheels.com/rb.php
Roughly €370 ex wheels. Light weight and look sexy as f***
I would get 15's if i was you. Best comprimise between handeling and looks for the mx5.
14's for handeling
15's for looks and handeling
16's and bigger for looks

Also tyres are cheaper.

sorry forgot to add that there is a guy on nutz selling em brand new with a discount
Again i am sure that he would extend the offer to mx5ireland members.

Thanks Ash, are they in gold tho'?
Not sure about the styling of em - you's see them on a mini....want something more contemporary - I'm just being fastidious now - sorry.

Yeah the ones in the pic are gold. He got them from the guy on mx5nutz that i linked to.
What you looking for exacatly? 5 spoke? 4 spoke? multispoke?
Remember wheel weight is a releativly big deal when it comes to the mx5. The bbs that you have now are more than likely uber light. If you switch to something like fox alloys from halfrauds then you will notice a big difference in your cars handeling and acceleration.
The rota's are a good lightweight and reletivly cheap option
Anyways i'll post up some more options for you in a minute.
its fun spending someone else money for once!!!!

LOL- spend away with my cash Ash...........naaaaaaaaaa.......I'm not going to halfrauds..........just want to get a set of tasty gold rims...........not 5 spoke or the like either.......look back at the old thread with the 5's in from japan........thats what i'm after.

Thanks,
Ollie.
