If it were bottle tops or those, I'd go 14" all the way. Those wheels look like Krull:

I did notice some in the for sale thread posted today actually.
I'm only really keen on the expensive bbs, although I've not looked the photos on the advert yet (can't from work) so will do when I get home. In all honesty they've got to be better than the ones I've posted here.

I sold my last set of 4, 3 with useable tyres, one burst for £20 without caps just to get shot of them.
But expect to pay £80 to £150 depending on condition, tyres and centre caps.
But Please dont buy the shite you posted a picture of.

If you havent alreadu bought them, save your pennies and get some bbs... You'll only need to though a bit more at them. If your lucky, you might pick some up for the same price

I can't think of a single car they might look good on. A Toyota Avensis Mk1 maybe.
