Rotary 18" Anthracite Alloys on a GTI?
« on: 18 August 2013, 10:17 »
In an effort to pass the time waiting for a build week I was browsing through the accessories offered by VW and found the 18" Anthracite alloys "Rotary".



I'm quite tempted to talk to my dealer about these, I reckon they'd look awesome on the Carbon grey I've ordered.

Anyone seen these in real life, particularly on a GTI?

I've not actually seen them but I had spotted them as well and think they look the nuts.

They're relatively cheap in the accessories brochure too, compared to other 18" alloys. Always worth looking at Ebay.de as there are quite a few OEM accessories suppliers there.

Thank you.

VW need to sort their website out. They have a link on another page telling the accessory brochure is coming soon when another link on the same site has the range. Another case of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is up to...

Those rims look good and not too expensive, you think they let you do a swap for the standard GTD ones.

Never really been a fan of dark wheels - needs to be a special car and wheel combo for it to work for me!
