Guys,
I have got the OE alloys.You all know that.But even at this juncture i have a confusion.

That is whether to take all the headache of a great looking 100 pcd aftermarket wheel or to have a peace of mind with my stock wheels.The car cannot look so unique though.

Vignesh, you have already bit the bullet, so why not go ahead with it. Adventure vs. peace of mind, well, it is for you to take a call.

motor spirit · 20th October 2009, 22:36

hi vignesh,

I guess u shud go with the stock wheels. I guess you are talking about the alloys offered in emotion pk right ?
They look awesome & genuine.

Caramelo · 21st October 2009, 01:23

aren't the alloys OE punto alloys 98 PCD?. if then i think you should go ahead with the OE alloys! sure it won't look different and stuff but dude. you bought a punto. you are already standing out from the mango ppls.(aam janta) uniqueness is not a thing to worry about in this case. and those alloys look awesome man its quite the funky design!! i think you should go with it. (assuming you have already bought them?!!). its upto you man!!

vigneshram · 23rd October 2009, 11:53

My friend who has got the wheels is now wanting to use the punto wheels for his palio.He said this after i said i am going for Hijoin in 98 pcd.interesting?the same here.see the pic and tell me guys.I love it.thanks to ms001 bhai for showing me that website.I like the aftermarket look my car gets after this wheel.What say guys?

sharanramesh · 23rd October 2009, 12:31

I love the seat covers and the audi'sh grill. But i somehow think you can find better looking 16" alloys with 98PCD.

i would love a simpler alloy which i have seen on the UK Grande Punto. Attaching a pic of that here, try looking for somein like this, it will really make the car look hot. If you wanna check, goto Fiat.co.uk | Fiat Showroom : Latest Offers, Book a Test Drive, Fiat Car Range and more, and customize your own Grande Punto 5 Door. you can see these alloys there and it makes the car look awesome.

Caramelo · 24th October 2009, 03:27

i think the multispoke alloys look good on particularly punto. but your choice is also very nice. punto would need at least 16". and i think it wouldn't affect the ride quality very much.

oh and this is very important. plz check the OE alloys, check for bents and cracks and stuff!! you never know man! just keep ya eyes open. just a thought bro!

vigneshram · 28th October 2009, 23:19

Finally i received the Punto OE alloys as said earlier was purchased by shiva aka cyberdoctorind.from Hyderabad.He was kind enough to ship it to me to chennai.Just went and collected the package.attaching a few pics.Btw one pic is with my Eagle 1 polish which helped me restore the shine of the wheels.sorry for the bad quality pics of my sony p1i.i should taken the pics using my canon cam..
