Slots rust and the chrome peels, brake dust eats it off, i'd go the 8 inch tridents and ger's, classic package.pity BBS pit lanes won't fit, or gold simmons forgot about them.

Hotwires with a deep dish suit most old cars,tridents are ok but I don't like the black centres, I 've got Ansen Sprints on mine that have the solid centre (no black out) and spinners,,magnum 500's sre very cool plus yea I agree Hq rostyles look good too

We called em 'peanuts' cos only monkeys liked em. Deepdish Hotwire, Turbo's, or Globes.

Anyway, back to topic. I had hotwires on both my XA's, my HQ came with Turbo's which I really don't like, so I put a set of tridents on it (polished) which I thought suited it. Never liked 12 slots at all for some reason. I looked for a set of Hustlers for the HQ, but found the Tridents first.Missed out on a bargain set of 14x8 and 15x8 Ansen Sprints because I thought about it too long, went back and they were gone (swapmeet).

I always thought Hotwires looked best on old jappa's they seem to look best on small cars
