Hi all starting to get tired of my cyclones. What do people think of these for a ph3 306 in white. Thinking maybe spray them black? Many people go for mutli spoke anymore?

Not too keen myself, and definitely not black... Possibly in silver or white.

Been looking at a few 306's on the google. , and all I can find is mutli spoke alloys on chavy body kitted cars. Which Is putting me off now. lol

They do look a bit cheap and generic, to be honest.

Only good looking multi spokes are team dynamics.

I bought a car with 16" Fox multi-spokes once, don't think it was chavvy at all...I mean it had neons, ally pedal covers, limo tints and a sun strip..... But nothing really chavvy.
They came off the next day for my cyclones of course.

They go good with the red, but ive got a white car, which is hard ot pick colours for that don't stand out to much. Ive got a thing for sun strips. I think I put them on every car ive had.

I normally hate fox/ripspeed/halfrauds usual crap, but they look really nice imo
30mm drop and that would look very tidy...maybe its cos they look very much like td2.1s!

I wasn't a fan either but they cost me 100 with 4 new tyres...they grew on me an awful lot, never got around to painting my callipers with those rims fitted, green calipers would have been nice
Daniel - what size are yours ?

That was already 40mm dropped!!  1.4 meridian though, so pretty high as standard lol. Looked better on the 'clones anyhow.
Only kept it 6 weeks though, popped a rad hose and headgasket, fixed and sold on then this happened about a week later lol.

Agreed! Painted the hub caps on my old 306 matte black and at first it looked alright, then you notice the tyres need to be kept constantly clean, and with hubs and certain alloys it can just look like you have black steelies
Those alloys look quite nice, helps if the cars low imo
