Default Finally decided on wheels on My st220

Finally bought my wheels after lots of thinking and here's the result.
What do people think? I'm really happy with them

Can't go wrong with a similar to stock design. Looks good

I thought if I kept them similar it would be ok. There 20" and cars lowered 50mm and there's no cut, rolled arches or spacers either. No rubbing .

Looks nice

I want to change the wheels on my ST220 estate, but its hard when the stock ones suit the car so well.
What profile tyres are you using ?

Tyres are 235 30 mate. I think any multi spoke would look good. I just wanted to be a bit different. And happy I did now

Looking good mate, how does it ride on the 20s compared to the 18s?

That's good then. I bought a set of 19s for my mk4 today, was going to go 20s but was worried they might ruin it a bit so chickened out lol.

Just too costly to run mate, they really aren't cars you can use as a daily driver forever unless you have massive pockets! Needed loads of work doing to it and I was using a tank of fuel every 3 days just for work so I decided to get rid in favour of something that does 700 miles on a tank of diesel!

Cool. I thought it was, have heard they fit the mondeo quite well but never actually seen one on lol Remember buying them when we had the LCR as they got broken quite often on speed bumps lol
