Sorry but they're not quite my cup of tea. But I do like your stool with all the detailing bottles hanging from it!

I really like them, but then I’m a big fan of gunmetal / anthracite coloured wheels. It’s a shame the centre bore is too large for the VW centre caps to fit though.

I need to get one of those detailing stools................ :grin:

I think they look nice but just shout "I'm gonna get curbed in like 2 days!" :(

I'd go with something a little more recessed if I was paying...

 :sad: :grin: :grin: No these are only 8" wide, so they not worse than Stock OEM Wheels!.

But the best these are half the price of Stock Wheels. So no problem if you hit the curb, you don´t be ruined  :wink:

I dunno, its not about tyre width, its about the projection of those spoke on it - they seem to bulge outwards?
