   I've recently been looking for deep dish rims for my Posi Blue saxo.
   But I'm not sure which ones to get or where to look.
   Anyone got any suggestions?
   Thanks

   if you think them wheels are too expensive then forget buying a set of euro alloys. there the cheapest euro alloy there is

   you could be talking 700-1k+ for proper euro wheels. shop about you may find some cheaper, doubt it though

   Yea it is expensive look,
   Looks so good though.
   I was looking at BBS RM and getting adapters,
   but can't find any RM's on ebay, or they are so over priced.
   Also looked at Schmidts
   but you have to phone for price and havn't had the chance yet.
   Will do so soon.
   I wanted to find nice deep dish split rims.
   Know any I can look at?
   Or got any pics?

    My BBS's cost in the reigon of £1600 but they were well worth it in my opinion
    Take a lot of resarch to get some that will fit

    Cheers for the advice guys!
    My brother knows someone selling their BBS RM's for 400 without tyres.
    They need refurbishing and spraying.
    Thinking of black with chrome lip with posi blue bolts and BBS centre.
    Once I get a set, I will post some pics up.

    id probably agree that lenso bsx cheapest euro wheels if your buying new and want the look. as im finding out its just as much about the stance as the wheels

    6.5 width , you'll need alot wider to get a good stance, there not much wider than vts wheels.

    theres lots of nice euro style rims out there but not many fit saxos 108 diameter and offset. Well least when iv looked.
    
    i really like these but i cant find the right fitting.

    Been a while since I posted about my wheels.
    I cleaned them and polished them with some autoglym
    I think they look so nice.
    
    I also bought some centre cap stickers, black with blue BBS.
    Have put them on but havn't taken any pictures yet.
    Thinking of going 7.5 on the front, and 8 on the back.
    The tyres are 195/50 R15 and have 20mm spacers to give it good stance.
    Sound good?

    Tbh mate no! Spacers are a cop-out and considering the difference in prices of the dishes is only about £50. You might aswell do it properly 1st time round. If you've got the correct offset id go 8's on the front 8.5" on the rear!

    I've had to get the spacers, without the rims touch on the suspension arm.
    The 20mm spacers stop that and they sit pretty good.
    I would go wider, but will the tyres fir onto 8's and 8.5's?
    Might be MEGA stretch lol
