My Hyundai Creta Base 1.4 Modified with Plati Alloys PY-1006 Full machined Dull black, They are 28000 for set of 4. Retained Stock 16 inch Good Year tyres. Roof rails added for Enhanced look.

@Sandeep_vgl,

I loved the alloys.

I have a few queries to wheel upgrade for my storme (Astern Black)

* Can we upgrade existing stock to a high "inch alloys ?

* I do not want a full blown out balloon look. Something what you did here is fine by me. So, will this require additional cutting/machine work on alloys to overcome the rubbing affect?

* Are there any trusted portals where we can go through the alloy list?

Thanks.

Hi Guys
My 2008 Honda Civic with Momo Quantum in 15 " with Pirelli P7s in stock size 195/65/r 15.

My Ritz with DIY painted alloys and red calipers/drums/tow hook.

MGA wheels generally look very plain jane but by painting them black you have made them look sporty. They look good now.

Thanks much, I had used red lips as well however removed them when I painted the calipers and drums red.

OK, that red lip definitely complements the black rims but yes, it is probably better to have either that or red calipers/drums.

How are your Apterra's holding. I had a bad experience with Hawkz on my Pajero, but that was 3 years back. They has a constant vibration and could not be balanced and went out of balance within a few hundred kilometeres.

Would love to know your experience with these Apterra's.
