   Hi guys
   
   I have been looking for some alloys for my VTS for ages now and still can't decide which ones to get. The car is a wicked red VTS MK2. I would love to get some new VTS alloys from Citroen but am not paying 150 notes per wheel. I want to keep the original wheels size 15" I believe, and want either a silver or matt gun metal colour. If anyone has any ideas put them forward, or if any 1 has some mint VTS alloys let me know.
   
   Cheers.

   Pay for a refurb of the current s wheels? can get them done in your colour choice then black or something sexual and get the grill done smoked lights etc.. always loved smoked wicked red's!

   Cheers, the lights are already smoked and the grills sorted. The only problem is that I need 2 new tyres for the front and when looking at the price of a referb and 2 new tyres it seemed cheaper to buy 4 new alloys with tyres. However I have been dabbling with the idea of refurbing the wheels my self. Is it a straight forward job ?

   It can be a straight forward job if you know what you are doing, there are a few how-to guides on here. You need to have the patients tho as it takes quite a while to do and perfect it
