Default alloy wheels

Hi,
I'm from England and new to this forum and am thinking about buying a 2007 Pony edition. I'm not keen on the wheels. Where is the best place to get some good wheels for it ? Does anyone know if British alloys are suitable ?

There are some fantastic cars on this forum. I hope that I can get mine to look that great.

regards,

Default RE: alloy wheels

Welcome to the forums!

Obviously, shipping from the US is going to be very expensive, so what I would do is see if there are any UK or Euro wheel shops, and give them the rim size you want (17", 18", 20"), tell them the pattern (5 X 114.3 mm), and the correct offset (not sure). Wheels should fit based on that info (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

Also, TireRack.com or DiscountTireDirect.com may have shipping deals to the UK.

Now, if only you guys would stop driving on the wrong side of the road...

Thanks kenthicken. I take it that any old wheels won't fit. What do you mean by the pattern and the offset ?

If you think I drive on the wrong side now, just wait until I come across the pond in March, then I will be driving on the wrong side - if I remember to !!
