UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hay.....could weeks back my front right tyre randomly goes flat...so i take it to the garage and they say its like "fallen" off the alloy or something like that (my bro took it in) - then it was alright again for about a week
then a few days back it happens again - iam driving and then it just goes lop sided - when i get home i see the same thing has happened
After taking it to the garage the guy says the alloy is actually "broken" and now i dont know what to do

If i get new alloys i can only spend....upto about 150 say - 2nd hand ones are fine for me - as long as it hasnt been curbed to much lol
Was wondering where do i find 2nd hand decent ones? i was checking through gumtree....

Also its been lowered and i have 15's on there now - would 16 be ok?
I have a few pics (not the best - havent got any decent onees with me now! sorry) but also advise if i should get black rims? iam not a fan of black rims but iam thinking....it may suit the car? - if anyone has black rims on a 6n would appreciate a look

Thanks alot!!

Check these forums and ebay for decent 2nd hand rims. As for 16's they will fit with 195/40/16 tyres. It all depends how much your car is lowered as well as the width of the rims you get.
