Who has 19s?

[countrytrucker]

Can anyone who has 19s on their car please post a pic of it? Preferably white.

I am trying to decide what wheels to buy for my car which arrives at the end of the year.

The wheels are 19 x 8.5 with offsets of ET52.

I have the 18 monza shadows and although when I was first thinking of buying the GTI I thought these looked horrible they have really grown on me.  I think they make the GTI stand out from cars with normal alloys, at least the monzas are somewhat different.

Why would you want 19s on when the ride on the 18s is supposed to be a lot harder than the 17s, although it is not something I've found having been in both I much prefer the 18s.

I thought this was going to happen.

Please don't try to tell me that the ride will be terrible and question me wanting 19s.

In my opinion, 19s make the car look awesome and any downsides there may be are not enough to put me off.

That looks the fcuking nuts.

Terrible? No. Firm? Yes.

I'm in no way getting at you, but the ride quality comment is someone's opinion. In your opinion the look of the 19" merit the trade-off with ride. Each to their own...

Just do it!

Not getting at you fella it's just an opinion, which is what a forum like this is for to give an opinion on what we all think of the mk6 GTI.  I love the feel of my car on the 18s but would not want to ride on 19s, but that is my opinion.

For me it's a visual thing - IMO the car looks better on 19's. There's no real-world advantage and infact 17's and 18's will probably provide more progressive on-the-limit handling.

Still like this one the best by far for me.

Just fitted 19s on mine and dont find the ride any harsher than 18s
