Iv got 2 sets of alloys and cant decide which to use on my valver. Some Turbines which i had on my previous clio and some phz 2 valver wheels which im currently runnin. Il either choose one of these 2 or hold out for some williams wheels painted grey or white.

Whichever i decide i will probably be refurbing/ powdercoating in a dark grey/anthracite or something

Just wanted to know what ur guys thort

I was tryin to put pics on but it wont let me for some reason

Both the Turbines and ph2 alloys are pretty heavy, but not sure which are lightest out of the two.

If you are changing the wheels purely for performance value you want the lightest - ie the Willy wheels out of what you've said... or you might even want to research what other options are available. I've read pro race 1.2's are nice light wheels.

As for colours, it's a personal preference I guess, but what colour is the car?

the car is williams blue. im not bothered about how light the wheels are its not goin racing and iv got a big dirty sub in the boot anyway. just about looks.

id love a set of williams wheels powder coated in white or either of the other 2 in anthracite. i had the turbines on my old 1.2 clio lowered and without centre caps it looked mean. i like the old skool/euro look.

haha that would be some turd-burgaling Ninja having some fun with the website...

personally i think the Tur-bines look awesome, give them a full refurb in a new colour and polish the rim yourself, i did some and they looked awesome
