Neil, which wheels are you running at the moment? And where did you pick them up from?

Running the VWR 19s but no longer available  :rolleyes:

That's SO unfair.


The wheels are from Flashpoint in the USA i think,
I have just been on there site and halfway through checkout, and for 4 19" wheels $596.00  +del to uk $1271.44  = $1867.44  :shocked: :sad:

Aah, cool, I've just been back on the VW Racing site and noticed there's another batch due sometime now.

Do you have any more pics of your motor with these on?

They really are the best looking wheels. Unfortunately, I'll have to stick with my 18" Shadows for negotiating pothole paradise.

I wonder how much the ride quality is affected with 19" wheels.

As long as the quality is better than a Civic Type R with 18's it'll be okay ;)

Handling.. on the other hand..

I did, had an FN2, until some bigger boys took it.

Cheers for the pics Neil, looks good!
