Alloys for Indica (Newbie) - Team-BHP

panky12345 · 31st January 2007, 14:35

Hi All,

I am a total nubie to this section and dont know anything about alloys/like. Tried searching, but of no use.

I would like to install alloy rims in my Indica Diesel V2 DLS, dont want to change my stock Bridgestone tyres. Please let me know where to source it from and at what price (Cheap and Best - Budgetrial constraints)? Also, would alloys coupled with stock tyres would pose a problem as regards fuel effeciency, vibrations etc..

all suggestions are welcome.

Well since you're a complete newbie here's what an alloy looks like:

As for the sources in Delhi PM/Call me whenever you have time & we can have it done. Prices I think for a 13" alloy would be about 2.7-3k per piece. And yes, you can retain your stock tyres on them.
