Hi guys
I'm thinking of moving away from my C5 steels on my 205 Rallye track car as I have a heat build up problem with them and have to run spacers to clear my Kad 6 pots.

Now I'm thinking of doing a bit of racing in 2014 and want a set of alloy wheels to use for this. Might sound silly but half the reason of running steel looking wheels on my car is I don't think any alloys suit the flat arch of my car so hence this thread.
My criteria is...
15' x 7
Direct fit
Good caliper clearance to clear my brakes with no spacers
Light as possible. No rally spec wheels!
Look like they suit my 205 Rallye (I'll put a pic up of it when I get into te office)

Obvious choices are TD 1.2's but anyone got any other good options?
I also want to order them from Halfords, sounds odd but at work for selling certain stuff we have a compliments card which can be used at high street shops which also includes halfords. I have £450 built up so on theory I can get a brand new set of rims without costing my pocket a penny :-)

Although the Halfords part is a luxury and not actually determining what I want if I can't get them from there.

That bloke in the white tee-shirt is a sexy beast Big grin

Halfords obvs wont do these and you'd prob have to import them from the good old US of A

Clicky

Not sure about the offset but they do come in 15 x 7 and in a few 4 stud options. I think they look cool

I've always liked the ATS dtc wheels and are supposedly very lightweight. Don't reckon Halfords will do them though...

Pro 1's or 2's have even better clearance than the 1.2's.

Some speedline 2015? The ones which where made for the 205 woud look the nuts.

Or some bttc speedlines if you have deep pockets Whistle

What is more desirable then, looks or weight?

As said previously ultraleggeras would be best for price/weight/cooling but they are too modern. Any compromise anywhere?

Agreed - Ultraleggeras would be ideal and can look awesome

I take it they won't fit on the back due to the width?
