Title: Right...wheels....
Post by: mix on 27 August 2006, 20:38
Having taken my golf down the local garage to get the front wheels balanced to stop the eery shake over 75+ it turned out that one of the wheels was buckled...so that went on the back....

And there is nothing worse than going fast and having visions of you back-end shaking itself off...

Here is the thing, i wanna keep the car looking as original as possible, and i don't wanna drop loads on a set!  oh, i also don't want BBS....

So which wheels whould i get that came originally with the mk2 Gti?...i need reminding at this point...
