hi there, I want to get some new wheels for my mk3 but unsure what to get, I have been looking at Lenso BSX silver rims but heard a 50/50 about them. My budget is £650 any ideas? Thank you
-
i have them exact wheels mate and i love them. not had any problems at all with them. i have put BBS centre badges on them and they look good as you can see from my sig pic
if you do get them get the offset made at ET20 as they will sit perfectly flush with the arches like mine.
here is a link to where i got mine from for about £600 ish with tyres ready to fit including new wheel bolts.
ask them what the best price they can do for you is with 195 45 15 tyres is and they will get the price down as i hagled and get them at that price.

Nice to hear some more good about these wheels I do like the look of them and I have been looking at the same site and they do look great on a black golf
-
Oh yes they give that I have expensive wheels look even though they are fake split rims.
I love mine. Plus you can go silly low on them.

I must admit do do like the look of the Schmidt modern lines :cool: where is the best place to buy these from?
Anyone else got anymore info on wheels for this budget? Just trying to make sure I get the best for my money :smiley:
-
By the way the prices on that topgear site are not the price they say when you ring them up. Them web prices are atleast £100 cheaper than they actuly are when you ring them.
-
yeah i had that trouble with topgear when i brought for my mk2 but they emailed me a price and said thats what im paying lol but still battling out in my head now which to go for , both rims look great :cool:
-
Problem I found was when I was looking for rims all the ones I wanted only came in 4 stud fitment so I settled for the lenso,s kinda wish I had searched abit more now but still I'm well happy with mine and they work perfect with the theme iv done on my car.
-
The modernlines look easier to clean and look very :cool:
-
Borbet A's are another favourite!

There are plenty out there!!
-
That's my trouble so many to choose from but just as many badly made ones as well, just trying to get an idea of the one and bad ones then go from there
-
My lenso,s are a b!tch to clean and seem to get dirty again very fast. Constantly cleaning them. Autoglim wheel seal is your friend lol.
-
Yeah I am keeping the cleaning up keep in mind, as I live in the country side so lots of muddy farmers lol
-
There is soo many wheels out there to get! You can even get cheap ones that look great.
