What year is it mate? I've got some gti colour concept wheels in average condition, from a 1996 mk3, so there 5 stud.. if yours is quite an early one then itl probably be 4 stud so worth checking. 3 good tyres but will need replacing. Let me no if your interested and we'll sort out a price mate.  :wink:

Nice choice, I'm getting the borbet "A" for my mk2. They should look really nice on a mk3.

As for modifying, what did you have in mined?

When I was looking for alloys for my Mk3 CL I did a few photoshops of Mk2 wheels like estorils and P slots, then looked on ebay, but ended up with a set from a Mk3 Driver for £36 !
Just search on ebay for 4x100 fitment, you'll find loads.

If your on a budget i'd say ^^^ thats your best bet...can get some amazing deals on ebay....mate just got a set of p-slots for 99p!!!  :shocked: were listed in the wrong section....doesnt happen very often but there is a chance.

If your not on a budget....BBS LM's  :cool:

Get some decent 5 spokes.

Don't go for any chrome as they will look crap after 6 months. Colour coded with the car would look good too. :cool:
