They might be cheap, but won't they be worse than the original alloys?

Does it not have alloys at the minute?

I thought the point of changing the wheels would be to reduce unsprung weight, or maybe to fit slightly wider tyres? Is that not the case?

Just out of curiosity are those steel wheels? Why would you put your car on those? Presumably all this will do is increase unsprung weight quite a lot making it worse to drive?

It's a S has steels as standard ;)

Oh, so they're just the standard wheels minus the hubcaps and then painted? So just a visual thing then?

I always think of performance and not visual changes when I think of modifications :)

sorry for stupid question but what does air filter do? I mean why would one want to upgrade?

as for badge — if its the only white thing in your car it wont look good imo. Need something else like white wheels.
