Title: advice on wheels?
Post by: avengedslayer on 08 October 2010, 15:17
Okay, these wheels are off a polo gti, did they make some for the golf?, i like them and think they would compliment my estate which is 4x100 pcd!, also can u get wider dishes for them or is it not a split rim?

Wayne is correct, RX2's
I dont believe they are splits. And the outer rim suffers terribly with lacquer peel over the years!
RX2's also came of the Mk4's and Mk3 Anni's although different widths.
Look very tidy on G3's :)

Shadys were 16"

Mine were 16" but they were RXs, the difference between mine and RXIIs is RXs are one piece and have a flat lip. Check out my old Dub Rides thread for pics. I would link but I'm posting from my iPhone.  :rolleyes:
