almera on 14's

not too sure, like the wheels but cant see it ever working, in order to fill the arches your going to have to drop the body further but that would make it indrivable
 
OEM GTi alloys all the way I think. guess thats why they're 15"s as standard :cool:
 
GTI alloys are horrible I think.. Pretty much every standard alloy I dont like.. bar some BMW / Merc ones..

I prefer the 17's to them but these to the 17's.. Im defo going to scale down to some 15's.. need to be as wide as possible though..
 
looks shit imo, why put euro style wheels on a jap car?

i agree that 15/16 are miles better and with a decent profile tyre you will fill the arches and help stop kerbing.
 
Go LOWER!!!
My 1st car was a mk3 fiesta -80mm on 13's, proper giggle! Local nipple heads didnt take to it too kindly mind.lol.

p.s. not sure if you guys have checked out that site www.mytyres.co.uk got budgets to keep me going untill i get some nice rims, quite cheap and all prices include VAT and delivery.
 
good point fella ;)

These are the wheels fitted to the car that they were bought for.. My main project.. They are the perfect wheel for the car and the bodywork on the car..

You may think they look shit.. but not as shit as the Standard rear Alloys on an almera GTI.. offset police?

What exactly are euro style wheels?..

Wheels with a very deep dish?.. Or split rim style?.. or VW style?

These are VERY JDM but are they euro..

There is a very good reason to fit ^that^ style of wheel to a jap car, such as giving the car a proper stance and filling the arches like they should from the factory.. I dont mean size wise but offset and width wise..

Im selling my 17s now and im ordering the exact same wheels as the Borbet type 't' above but in 16''

The width and offset are what the almera needs on the back.. this will give me a much bigger wheel for the asthetics while keeping the offset nice and wide at the rear..

Nicest wheels you can get for the almera imo.. the fitment is perfect.. just the 5spoke style of rim is dependant on personal taste..
 
I hope this doesn't offend you but the above car looks like a toy car. It should be in noddy or something. stil looks nice though.
 
I know the micra looks like a micro-machine. Loads of people have said it looks like a toy car, or like a childs trainer..

.. as I dehandled it and everything, no badges,rear boot was smooth etc..

Its looks more like a real car now.. same kit but modified with FMIC in mind..

..and I dont think the engine in it belongs in noddy..

there was a black almera on here last year sometime I think from germany, with very deep & wide 15s on, slammed with a custom f/g front lip and it looked the mutts. Anyone remember that? euro style does work on the N15, and the odd shape of the rear arches helps if you use wide, high offset wheels like that.
 
pardon my french but that black one is fucking sick. hre wheels are the nuts and that splitter is mental. easily one of, if not, the best almera i have ever seen.....
 
im not that keen on the wheels but the trye strech looks good and that splitter looks wicked. tried reading through the foreign lingo but couldnt work it out. any idea who is responsible for making that splitter or do you recon its a custom job?
