Default 18" Wheel Mania Vortex Alloys

I am thinking of getting these.
Are they any good - any related problems?
Cheers.

got them fitted on my MY98 Sport. Had no problems at all, just have to be careful to keep your distance from kerbs!
They look the buisness too

havent got any decent pics yet....will do that at Japfest!


I actually got them from my mate, he decided to sell his car...only had them on his wrx for 120 miles(about a month)!
They are available from wheelmania (they advertise on ebay) for £895 with tyres

Very nice indeed mate.
Thanks.
I have seen them on ebay, but reckon i might be able to do better.
I saw a set today on a Scoob and they were really badly kerbed - do they kerb easily then? - although i intend to give them all a hugely wide berth! If you see a blue Scoob in the middle of the road all the time it'll be me!!!

They do kerb pretty easily, with the falken tyres on, the edge of the wheel rim still sticks out the furthest. One of mine is very lightly kerbed on the very edge, although its been sanded down and touched up so you cant really notice it. Mine are the shadow chrome finish...which look sweet when cleaned and polished
