My GF has bought the Punto that Gareth (CelicaV8) kindly donated to raise funds for Area 52. It's doing a sterling job of being her daily as well as the Area 52 parts chaser. Nicknamed the "Gutless Wonder" (her choice and a term of 'endearment') she is very happy with it. Now she wants some alloys for it! She came home yesterday and said, "I need alloys - I can't drive a car with those hubcap things" If anyone has some 14" or 15" alloys that would suit, please let me know. Ideally 15" with tyres. And as you might have guessed, cheap ideally! The car in question - the Gutless Wonder. Many thanks.

They're only 13"s but I reckon they'd look the nuts. I can even deliver!

I've got a set of 4, 4x98 5.5x14 et34 Lancia Beta rims without tyres going for £40 And a set of TSW 3 spokes 7x15 et 30 with 195/50's 4mm tread £100 if you're interested? I have offered them to the Count first though,so he gets 1st refusal just to be fair. www.flickr.com/photos/16545001@N03/sets/72157625238357283/

Thanks for all the offers guys. Dan, 10's aren't the sort of thing she's after I'm afraid. Brian, that's a very kind offer, I showed her the pics and she hesitated (which I know is her way of saying no, but not wanting to say it!) Thanks again Dude, but I think it's a no go despite the amazing price! Alan's wellers could look cool but I think she's got it in her head that she wants alloys. You know what women can be like HKP - why did you post that link up? I now can't get this image out of my head: If it was my car I'd be organising the courier now! Subtle drop, clear indicators and those 3-spokes. 90's all the way ;D I'll show her the pics tonight and wait to see what Alan decides with them. Thanks again everyone. If anyone else has anything to offer, please let me know?

/\ Reminds me of a guy that had one back in 2000 on my mates estate, was on TSW Stealths though, but the 3 spokes stangly look good to me again.

I actually think they look better on that punto than they would on my Lada. Is there any way of getting the wheels and punto together this weekend at Area52? Then we could have a wheel-off and decide what looks best on what.

LOL - except the Punto will be in the Brecon Beacons this weekend. GF is on a hiking weekend and taking it with her rather than her Smart car. I'll be in the Delica which I can tell you now...will not suit the wheels! HKP - PM on its way
