Title: How about these OEM wheels on a mk6?
Post by: Snoopy on 14 August 2011, 19:11

As the last ones split people 50:50 how about these?

Shown below on a mk5 GTI in shadow blue

But how about on a Mk6 shadow blue GTI?

These wheels suit the mk6 really well, I prefer them in a darker shade though.

There the standard Eddy30 wheels on Paul's Gti I think if you went for BBS CH in 19" they would look very nice on the mk6 Golf.

Those are to die for.

BBS are just born to be driven on a VW Golf.

IMO those wheels are getting a bit worn out on Golfs.

I'd rather go for a fresher idea or something more individual.

On shadow blue the bright silver of some alloys does seem to clash,
This to me happens with the VW 17 monza's especially and a couple of other wheel designs i have seen photos of on shadow blue golfs.

They look fine.
But BBS CKs are even nicer.  :smiley:

The CH rock!

CH and CK's are worth breaking the bank for and will always be sort of second hand if you sell them on.

They certainly suit it but it is worn out now.

Thanks for all the replies. Seems these are liked best.


What do we think of the edition 35 wheels as there a similar shade?

My car would look the same as this one and therefore I am not too taken with them, I'd rather have the BBS.  Even the monzas look more classy than those Edition 35 ones.

I think they look like Focus ST wheels.

I agree with Amanda.

My 1st preference would be BBS CK silver alloys and 2nd BBS CH silver alloys.

No other alloys look as good as these on a GTI. They are popular because they ARE the best.

If i go with BBS it would be the 18" VZ not the CK as i think the spokes are too thin on the CK. I like the CH but there expensive and not huge different looks wise to the £630 VZ's.

This:
£840
CK

Or,

This:
£606
VZ

No contest. The first.  :smiley:

I saw an 11 plate GTI today, black with a set of black Omanyt's (i think thats what they're called) with the outer lip in silver. It looked absolutely stunning! :drool:
