Bentley Rims
« on: June 07, 2009, 07:53:49 pm »
Tried my mates wheels on whilst his back was turned for a minute or two, he's got them for sale, and they are factory triple-plated chrome finish,(19's) which are quite rare apparently.
I was interested in how the 9J rim sat in the arch rather than anything else, they are just too bling for my car!!
I suppose the skinny stretched tyres helped with squeezing them under the arches.

What width and ET were they?  They look pretty close to all parts of the arch! :smiley:

I like those wheels, but in the normal silver finish.  I can see why they're rare, I guess most are in the US on rappers' cars.

I agree with you on the budget tyres, but I'm a big fan of running rare rims and a big drop.  Especially round my way, speeding is impossible (my favourite roads are now SPECS zones) so why not make it look stylish for the slow/show times?

Personally, I like to get the best of both worlds.  My old Ibiza had polished TT Comps and a big drop for the road but it also had lightweight OZ's and a C spanner for the track.  The Golf will hopefully go that way too.
