They look superb, did the wheel nut covers fit ok?

They look fab and certainly add some extra prescence and menace to the car  :cool:

Great choice and colour! The wheels compliment the car no doubt. Had mine just over a year now and still look as new. The Mk8 doesn't necessarily "shout" its presence as such {no bad thing} but with these fitted I certainly have had some second looks/questions. Enjoy sir!

Thank you everyone, glad to see a good consensus on the wheel choice and colour, I had so many weeks of thinking about my head hurt  :laugh:

I can confirm that the OE VW wheel bolt caps fit onto the supplied bolts and sit inside the wheel recess perfectly. Really good OEM+ option wheel.

Tony Jazz your earlier pics in the what have you done today thread got me looking into these in the first place  :smiley:

Looks great that really suits the car these wheels!
Some racingline springs would make it just 👌

Well I have been looking at those, I think the same but I’m not sure about the effect on the ride.

I still don’t understand why VW only fitted the stripe along the bottom of the front wing and front door on the Clubsport…………..

Yes, I agree it would look better up the side of the car. Found this before, might get this at some point.

Here you go, got em fitted today, pretty pleased and the car seems to drive and handle a little better. Could be in my head but it feels good!

Thanks  :smiley:  I was all set to get these in bronze (hence the thread title), but now I am sure this was the better choice for keeping things subtle and OEM+ looking.
