    Default Which wheels would you get?

    I've got two sets of 20's in mind for my VY Acclaim. There's no body kit, car will be lowered, undecided on spoiler.

    Axis Zero

    Lenso Conquista5

    Which would you get? I have a slight preference for one, but I'm not gonna say which at this time

    i don't reckon the Lenso's look too bad depends what there going on though.

    I'd be looking at the online shops and getting some genuine rims, if off a VE get them machined up. Otherwise aftermarket something with a polished rim and black centre.

    Oh I intend to. It's just everyone on the forum seems very opinionated in an "in-your-face" way, attacking when people seek advice. So it'd be interesting to see how these people think.

    It is your money CJ so buy what you think looks good on the car.

    In my opinion you are wasting your money putting blingy 20 inch rims on a VY Acclaim. (Great for the VE though). Furthermore too many people spend big on 20 inch rims and then fit el-cheapo tyres from Korea or China (because good quality 20 inch tyres of the correct size are expensive). (Then they frequently run around with near clapped out dampers or other suspension issues). It's the 4 little patches of rubber in contact with the pavement that keeps your car on the road in the wet and dry not the blingy 20 inch wheels.

    If it was my money I would be getting 18 inch wheels with a quality set of performance rubber. Save on the wheels and spend on the tyres. There is a wide variety of very good quality tyres at reasonable prices in 235 / 40 / 18 size which is the correct fitment on an 18 by 8 inch or 18 by 8.5 inch rim and you will not have any issues with meeting minimum tyre load ratings etc etc.

    Enough said. It's your money though.

    Ah, well that's interesting cos those Lenso's are available in 18's. And are significantly cheaper than the 20's. Hmmmm...

    Def the lenso's mate. In a staggered fitment in 20" would look good. Painted gloss black too....

    Axis. There's not much difference in the two though.

    i have a feeling the Axis would look shite once you get them in the right offset for a VY.
