i mean they look wrong on the GTi, as they do on the S3, i dont think they look sporty enough, only my opinion, as long as you like thats all that matters

Post by: LaserBlue on 10 May 2008, 21:47: @182..... most people always say the alloys do look sporty?

i think the alloys are nice but would look a lot better in 19s and on the s8 as thats were they came from before the 18s were made for the s3

ive seen some 30th anniversary rims on ebay starting bid Ã‚£450 they look nice as new tires aswell.

i get bored of wheels quickly :undecided:
