Opinions please

I'm considering fitting these http://www.autopartuk.com/media/catalog/product/ca... to my 1998 450. To my mind they look a bit like the lattice wheels fitted to early Griffs. They are also available in 16 x 7.5 and 15 x 7.0 which would allow me to keep the original set up.

Any thoughts?

hi, im sure they look similar to a set of wheels that a member called lewis fitted to his chim just before he sold it. there was a topic about them if you can find it in the searches.

Hi - nice enough wheels but nicer than imolas or estorils? I'm not sure! The only alloys (to me anyway) that enhance the look of the car are RL7s and 16 inch spiders. Would give the car a more "classic look" if thats what youre after.

they look to old school for the era of the car

They look a bit Golf VR6.

You may get away with them if you go 19"

Toatally agree with that!

I must admit though that in the thread mentioned earlier in this thread (a red Chim that was sold abroad?) they did look cool. The red car sat lower too though I think.

Not a fan of those to be honest. Im in love with the spiders 18" seem the perfect looking wheel even if they are made of cheese!

I always wanted the SP12's when I had a Chimaera. They really suit the Chim IMHO.
