Hi All

Just thought I would share a couple of photos of the lightweight Clubsport wheels on my GTI. I'm really pleased!

They look fantastic!
Where did you manage to find those beauties?

Great wheels, and not too bad on the cleaning front either.

I really have to book an appointment with my optician as I can't see any photos.....

In the meantime though, where did you source them from? I see them on ebay occasionally but not for ages, only on some German dealer sites for big money!

I can’t see them either? Just a blank white square?

Hi, I'm not sure why some are seeing them....... Hosted on Google Photos, which usually works well?

Took a year to find! Set coming up were way out of budget, but in the end found someone with a Clubsport changing to Prets, so a deal was done. Took quite some effort to decontaminate and get sealed with C5 Gtechniq, but really pleased.

Cheers

Can't see them either, just a little no entry sign in the middle of big white square. Tried on Google Chrome as well as safari and no luck. Sure they look mint though.

I can see the pics on my laptop but not on my phone.

Although they look great, how do they drive? Can you feel the weight saving?

I can't see the pics either which is a shame.
It might be an iOS thing as I can't view them on either phone or my geriatric Mac.
I'll borrow my son's laptop later if it has so much as an iota of charge in it (unlikely).

I do know they look better on a standard GTI than a Clubsport though and a definite improvement in several ways on the OEM GTI alloys (weight and looks).

How much are sets of these going for?
Not wishing to be too nosey as to what GE90 paid but generally curious...
