    Black Steelies will just look like you have had your hub caps nicked

    Its Pretty much White only to really pull steelies off as people know White steelies as Rallye steelies




    This my Series1 Rallye steelies on the car with Citroen Berlingo Centre caps





    Get some Berlingo centre caps from a Citroen main dealer too to really finish off the wheel too.

    If your currently on Alloys, dont forget to change the bolts to Tapered Bolts as Flat Headed Alloy Wheel Bolts will damage you hubs with a steel wheel on it.

    Trust me I now

    thats an unsuall size

    vtr wheels are 185 55 14.. the steelies that came on my car were thinner and a higher profile too!

    iv got a pik of a silver VT with white steels on it and still looks good, if yours is black then i think that white is the way to go, get the belingo centrecaps to, just under £5 ea from a dealer, mine needed to be ordered tho. i got my wheels from a mate that lives down the road and had them after he got some alloys. 20 for the 4. they are cheaper and you wont lose sleep if you kirb one. is your sax lowered/getting lowered? im getting lower pro' tyres and its dropped so should look good when i get them.

    ye i got all the crap off them 1st, took time to be fair but just get that out the way and your off, tryed to et all of the surface rust off but even if they mess up after a year then its not big deal really, i just used primer, black gloss and clear. needed 2 smaller cans of each (from halfrauds). didnt bother gettin the tyres taken off as im getting new ones,

    does anyone know if the flush fit valves are any good? i want to get a set of those also
