I have a black clubman 1275gt. Can't decide what wheels to get for it. Either starmags or alleycats. both 13x7 deepdish style. What do you think?

Starmags look really cheap and tacky.  Alleycats.

My thoughts too, IMO the Starmags look naff.  The Alleycats look like hard work cleaning though, you takes your pick :-)

Star mags just look like halfords wheels IMO.

I personally would choose Alleycats.

But it's up to you, it's your car and your decision.

I've bought alleycats, starmags look a bit dated these days.

I'd also say alleycats. I like starmags in 10", not in 13" though. I think 10" starmags in matte black would look cool.

I prefer starmags to alleycats. I do like alleycats, but they do come across as a BBS ripoff.

That's what I'm saying! They really suit a clubman!

Thats a great looking red clubman!! Looking at ultralite deep dish with the split rim effect for my mpi.....different car though obviously!! Agree with comments about the starmags ...i just dont think the style sits well with minis of any sort. But you pays your money you make your choice...its your car afterall. Go for your personal favourites would be my two pence worth, rather than taking advice..your the one that drives and owns it and that way youll always be happy with your choice!!
