Stock or alloys?

  1. I've got a freshly powder coated set of original stock wheels and a set of tyres stored away and I have been contemplating putting them on the van. I just need a set of hubcaps to be able to see what it looks like. Problem is a do not have the hubcaps and a good set is a good few quid just to see what it looks like. What do you guys reckon. Should I stay with my empi's or swap to stock?!?

  2. Them alloys do look pretty tidy. What is on the green bus. Very nice.
     
  3. personal choice but i prefer originals with shiny hubs! just cant afford nice hubs!!! lol
     
  4. You'll always come across hubcaps, I've seen some have painted ones, there's an option?
    Other than than that it's up to you, I'd rather stay stock but always looking out for a set of porsche teledials, but don't tell anyone ;)
     
  5. Oh I wasn't suggesting anything about painting OG hubcaps but I do have some, two of which have new shot blasted and primed. :)
     
  6. Alloys but not the usual Parp, go for something period or different.
     
  7. Do what you want its your bus

  8. I like the empis, when I have got some money I am going to get mine powdercoated white to match the top :)

  10. Yeah, I get that. But do you think it would look good with the stock wheels?
     
  11. Cant go wrong with stock as thats what it came with

  12. I prefer stock myself but I do quite like those empis. Stock ones only look Marmitee when they are allowed to go rusty
     
  13. Stock wheels are great. So are alloys. You need gun caps though
    :)
     
  14. Well...I think your EMPIs look very cool :thumbsup:
     
  15. Unless you're going Rat look? Problem,is, loads of people have Empis.

  19. Yep I'll concede the rat look thing :) @icepug has got a nice stock looking bus though, so nice newly powder coated originals would look fab I think :)
