What do you think of these rims on my car?

[Tom22562]

I own a white seat ibiza 2012 5 door sportrider and the oem rims are seriously damaged by the previous owner hence I decided to purchase a new set and I can't think which ones would suit my car best.
Option 1

Option 2

Option 3 would be to buy sliver/gunmetal alloys but I can't seem to find any so I'm open to suggestions.
Of course oem wheels would be of the highest quality and would keep their value but this is just a car that I'll most likely run into the ground so I'm only concerned by reasonable quality of the finish and the looks. Thanks for the help

Imo, nothing screams chav more than Wolfrace wheels, especially on a family hatchback.

Bit over the top in my opinion. I'd stick to as close as OEM as possible if I were you. Also your insurance company may get interested if you get wheels like those.

Stick to silver? I just can't find anything that would look good on it. Insurance company has already been notified of the change.

They are both really horrible aftermarket wheels.

If you want something gunmetal, how about these?

This is also a tried and tested design. I'd get some SEAT centrecap badges to replace the awful ones that come with them.

Personally I prefer the first option but would go with a gunmetal/silver colour as suggested - nothing screams chav more to me than white with black wheels

If you're going to just "run it into the ground" why not leave it is as is and save your money?

I don't like either, but each to their own

Wheels like most things in life are a personal choice, what one likes another will hate so I won't comment on the designs shown. What I will say though is don't go mad on size/profile it may look good to have wide/low profile tyres but it's not good for the car for many reasons. Perhaps the most relevant for this forum being slowing the car down and worsening it's performance. Try to stick to original size or if you really have too, one size up...we are talking road cars, not track...

cheers

Those Bola wheels. They should market a range especially designed for electric vehicles, with a suitable prefix on the name.

Thanks Pete, that's a very valid point and although I was considering upgrading to 18'' I've decided to stay at 17 solely for that reason.

But you bought a white Seat?

[h0b0]

the cost effective solution may be to have the wheels refurb'd. Although, I suspect there is an element of man maths here and you want fancy wheels. If thats the case, crack on.

[JordanM200]

Get those original ones refurbed gloss black if you're gonna stay with 17's?
