Are they? Sweet.
Don't no if I'm keen on the centre design tho.
Aaaagggghhhh why are all the wheels I like not made for my car or sh!t quality?
So is it a known common thing for lensos to peel?

Similar to Lenso from what I heard, haven't seen a set personally to confirm. They do look nice and are cheap but they do fall into that trap of being fake splits. Depends on how much of a hurry you are but if I had 700 gold coins burning a hole in my pocket I'd be scanning the classifieds and obscure websites trying to find something tasty. Or as I previously suggested I'd fit banded steels, plus you don't cry if you kerb them. Search ebay.de and ebay.nl for alufelgen :wink:

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

ok well seeing as i cant realy find any polished deep dish wheels i like i may go with flat is face wheels and just stupidly lower my coilovers over them.

so am now thinking maybe ronal turbos.
please tell me these are good quality wheels?  :tongue:

anybody got any pics of a mk3 golf with ronal turbos on?
