Hi thought I would start a new thread as a few have been interested.
Finally fitted winter wheels and tyres.
Wheels are from CM Wheels 18" Pretoria copies in gun metal grey.
Tyres I went for after doing a bit of research are Goodyear Ultra grip Gen-1. 225 40 18. Felt these were a good all rounder for reasonable price, paid £408 delivered from Pneus-online, got a local independent local specialist to fit them on wheels for me.
VW centre caps stickers from ebay stuck on caps provided with the wheels.
Sealed new wheels with Gtechniq c5 last weekend so had good time to dry.
So took Brescia's off gave arches and calipers a good clean sealed calipers with Gtechniq c2, would of like to used c5 but weather a bit damp and didn't have time for it to dry.
Fitted new wheels and quickly washed and dryed Brescia's, will clean and seal before spring, also got to get one refurbed.
Took for a little drive to check things and adjusted tyre pressure. Garage had set at 34psi which felt a bit soft so up to 37psi front and 38psi rear, felt a better, once tyres bedded in after a few hundred miles probably adjust pressure a little lower.
Noticed ride was a lot better not as harsh as 19"Brescia which have Pzeros.
Can tell grip was good but need to wait a bit for them to bed in.
Overall pleased I got winters and like the look even though the wheels are darker than I thought.
Might get some black mirror caps to finish off my winter look.
Some photos for those interested in changing theirs.
