And so you should...  :grin:

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

At the end of the day does it matter what "others" think of it as long as you like it and are comfortable with it. It is very much a subjective choice.

Absolutely - just wanted an idea.

As over 50% have gone for "Looks great" or "OK", will be sticking with them. I think.

I think the black wheels take some of the class away from the golf. It makes them look more chav to me. If i was paying R prices theres no way i would be trying to make it look cheaper.

are the black ones the same wheel as the silver ones? if so ,good luck with keeping them clean......they're too fussy IMO.
