If it does not fit your budget, avoid changing the wheels altogether and stick to stock. Far better quality than GTR Pro and similar wheels.
Any other brands you'd recommend? (Specifically for the Polo PCD?)

I'm guessing Lenso, Enkei, Momo and Vossen are a few brands that are reputed + great design wise.

Best brands quality wise are OZ Racing, Borbet, BBS and couple of others. But they are expensive too. In the budget segment Momo and Lenso are good

Re: The official alloy wheel show-off thread. Lets see your rims!

Hello bhpians,

Got a set of GTR Pro ST-02 15" in hyper silver for my Stage 2 baleno on stock MRF tyres (185/65/R15)

I've seen a lot of people here suggesting to stay away from GTR pros, but having run close to 10000 kms in the past 7 months both on the highway and city, I find them okay, no complaints.

I'd ideally have wanted to upsize to 17inch lenso Jager dynas but given prices as they are, maybe I'll save it for the honda city project !

Re: The official alloy wheel show-off thread. Lets see your rims!

Hey Team BHP folks!

Been thinking about posting the alloys that are sitting on my first project car, a Suzuki Swift G13B and I’ve finally decided to post em!

It first came with these really old-school 14’ chrome looking alloys that I was just dying to change when I got em pre-owned.

And replaced them with these replica 15’ Rays looking alloys with a staggered set-up. F 185/5516 & R 195/55/16.The official alloy wheel show-off thread. Lets see your rims!-img_0826_original.jpeg

Been in love with them since the I put em on, needed a slight touch up but I handled it as DIY at home with spray paints.

Note : It’s sitting lowering in the last wow PICTIRES cuz it’s lowered on Triple S Springs.

looks on point. would recommend you swap the F and R - The F being 195/55 and the R 185/55. Swift being a FWD. Enjoy

Re: The official alloy wheel show-off thread. Lets see your rims!

Hey Folks,

I want to upgrade my wheels to 17" for my Skoda Octavia Brilliant Silver. I had BBS SR wheels vulcano grey/diamond-cut. Any suggestions on where I can buy it from?

Also, can anyone give me some insight into how are the wheels being imported to India and how the dealer network works?

Do I need to pay import duty for the same wheels if I import it on my own?

Re: The official alloy wheel show-off thread. Lets see your rims!

My Tiago EV XZ+

I got my car in April 2023 and since Tata decided to go cheap and not offer alloys even on the top spec variant and rather give a 14 inch steel rims with EV specific hubcaps, now I had to get OEM alloys on them, BUT BUT BUT , the tiago OEM alloys are either 15 inches on the petrol variants which means a tyre change ( I wanted to avoid them ) or a dreaded looking 14 inches from the pre facelift which honestly is so pathetic it needs to be sent to hades !

So I tasked myself of getting the stupid ugly 14 inchers ( used for a steal deal ) and getting them machinated from a professional alloy restorer in Bangalore to give a diamond cut finish ( for 5K )!!!!! now its a one of a kind OEM alloys that is also unique! let the pics do the talking

ps: there is also a OEM 14 inchers called the Tiago Aktiv, but I did not like them

Got this upgrade a few months back and I’m happy with it!
Lovely alloys these are!! I run my Octavia on similar spec Michelin PS4 tyres.

May I ask where you bought these from & what was the cost?

To give you an idea, I was quoted 68k for a set last month. Price included shipping cost as the dealer is based out of Dehradun. So I believe current prices will be in the same ballpark.

Hi Amit, I bought it from "Car Trendz" situated in double road, I got the wheels for ~58k.

Thanks for the info. How are these holding up on our potholled roads. All the 4 alloys on my car (Reds by MOMO) had slight wobbles when I got them checked at Madhus

I've had a couple of hard hits on these, they seem to be holding up quite well.
