think they look ok personally, all about personal opinon though, think they suit car and will look better once car is lowered, all takes time though, will look good when its all done  :smiley:

I'm sorry but I think they look nasty. Try deep dish, polished rim  Mim Alpines. There are about 12 spokes painted silver with the return edge of the spokes painted black and they look absolutely great on a Tornado Red car. You'll probably have to drop it a little bit too.

This look is probably the reason I bought my first mk2 about 11 years ago.

bigger is better tbh, and like some ppl, they arnt my personal favourite. Youv got to go for 15's with a nice big drop with a mk2. Take a look in the gallery for some inspiration, im sure youl find some there!
