Just thinking of maybe changing the wheels for abit. Can someone photoshop these 2 on for me using these pics if you can.
One with these wheels, that would be 17"
And these ones:
I would do it myself but i'm crap with photoshop/paint

Dan matey, stay clear of the multi spokes. your car looks so nice as it is. But if you must change. then 90's wheels are a must like the Polaris. Dont chav it.

I do like the polaris ones. In 15" form they are crap, but get them in 17's and they look nice on a cav.
Heres a white one with them on:
Just wanna see what they look like on satin red

I've just shot my load. When I was at uni, in 98, I used to draw my perfect cavalier. (Black lotus carlton kit and these wheels)
Buy the time I got wheels for my own cav these were no longer out.
Pure 90's porn!

Lol. They look good, much better than i could do! The polaris ones suit it better i think. But both do look mint.

You could save a few quid if you had four printed on those sheets you stick on the side of vans and just put them on whenever you fancy a change?

There is,, well was a place up here that was vauxhall breakers that did conversions as well. one guy that worked there ran a cav turbo, but only ever on 16's as he said the 4x4 didnt like the 17's and didnt handle as well. But I cant say either way
What about BBS 16's
Such as the Lenso BSX type?
