They look seriously cool and are really nice wheels but I'm not sure they'd suit a mk2 tbh. Why not do a photoshop of your car with those wheels on and ask people to give comments and feed back.  You can't PM yet until you get to 10 posts, but when you do send a PM to a forum member called G6dub (Claire) and ask about the wire wheels they had on their mk1 and how they felt it drove, mind, they did have a 20vT in it at the time.

do they even do those wheels in golf offsets / stud patterns?


therses a LOT more to buying wheels than buying 15"s or whatever....

for example the porsche wheels i want will cost me another 200 just for the adapters to make em fit my car..
and only a couple places sell the adapters.. and thats a reasonably popular mod

Good point.

I researched wire wheels for my other car and yes you can get them in correct offsets & PCD's for virtually any car.

been thinking about the wobble thing, especially after seeing that E type on Top Gear! Think G6 must have had a duff set! That E Type was going up to 150mph.

Think Daytons are the ones with a German importer. But others are available direct from the States and there are companies in this country making them.

Prices I found were about £250 per wheel.

The only reason I didnt go ahead was because I wanted Gold centers and on spoked wheels that is real Gold plating and not suitable for road use.
