A slightly different "what..." thread

[Olly86]

Apologies if this is in the wrong section of PH..

Having seen the v8-v10-v12 coffee table thread it's rekindled my need to make an alloy wheel coffe table.

What Alloy's would you recommend? Needs to look good and be fairly recognisable.

Top of my list are Alfa Teledials

Anything but any type of teledials - not seen any that look good!

They look great but I'd go for a rear F40 rim.

Lambo countach rear

Easier to dust than an f40!!!

Could you imagine trying to dust a BBS wheel? Oof. Countach wheel would be great.

You can get a generic F1 trim for around £60 on eBay, they certainly go well as coffee tables

Really? Have to check it out. My mate has an F1 wheel but he got it when he worked for the Renault F1 team quite a while back.

Well I just had a quick look on eBay and appear to be going for a bit more than that now.

Certainly when I was looking last year, there was a few around around £50-70.
