   Around my end you see loads of none VT models with wheels, lowered
   and lexus lights. Just doesnt look good imo.
   But there is a lad with a black Mk2 none VT Saxo. Has VTR rims and is
   lowered. Nothing else. Looks spot on!

   VTR rims just look right on your car mate. Optional extra on the insurance too

   when i lived in Brum virtually every base saxo I came across had vt rims on them.
   
   So i joined them.
   
   Mine are declared as optional extra.

    i do agree that the VTRs look good on it. but i wouldnt mind having it look different. most of the saxos around york, that i have seen, are on VTRs

    some time soon hopefully.
    
    i need to get a damn good idea of what i want, then i need to let the insurance company know what the wheels are, then they can give me a price estimate for the insurance increase, if any...

    xsara ones are a bit more blockish if that makes sense
    
    they are similar though

    Has anyone on here got/ever had xsara alloys on? I saw a xsara with a set of what looked a bit like VTS rims, but they had grooves like in the VTR rims in the curves and they were matt silver that looked ok ish
