Tornado Red with dark graphite Seville wheels
« on: 21 October 2017, 12:56 »
I’m due to order a red mk7.5 GTI but cannot decide on wheel choice. I’m a fan of the Parker design so that was going to be my default choice however I’ve recently seen the French advert on YouTube that shows a TR GTI with the Seville wheels - https://youtu.be/NXDcn6eWFFQ

Does anyone have any photos of a TR with the Seville wheels? I’ve tried a google search but can’t find any decent shots.

Possibly not in the spirit of the thread but they look like they'll be a right pita to keep clean. If you like the Parkers I'd go for those.

Surely that’s the downfall of Santiagos?

The Santiagos are tricky but you get used to it. The Sevilles though appear to have lots of grooves and to be very fiddly, I think it would become tedious keeping them clean.
